but, she was also offended that Trump used "our sacred text." Sorry lady, but it is my sacred text, too, and I'm fine with Trump holding it My opinion that it would have been a crying shame if vandals had burned the church down. Apparently, she is fine with looters and vandals, but not a president who doesn't want her church burned down.

This sums it ALL up about Trump. Well said!!
PP forgot the final couple of sentences, which are brilliant too:
“This is not partisan. It is simply about recognizing the moral vacuum that is now pretending to lead.”
