Bishop At National Prayer Service Attacks Trump's Character and Policy

The Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington gave an insultingly political speech that excoriated President Trump for…being President Trump, basically. 





Episcopal Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde took the opportunity to slam President Trump at the National Prayer Service, where he sat among many of the nation’s leaders. The idea of the Prayer Service is to unify the attendees and remind them that we are all one nation under God. 

It was appalling in every way, no doubt coming from a leftist who speaks endlessly about love, compassion, and unity. She implied that Trump was an enemy of gay and lesbian people, criticized him for wanting to deport illegal aliens, and basically accused Republicans of being cruel fascists bent on oppressing the fine and upstanding people who have spent years working to destroy Donald Trump. 

Normally, you would expect that a National Prayer Service attended by all the mighty at the dawn of an administration would not become an occasion for a woke priestess to spew what amounts to vitriol, but then again, this sort of thing has become normalized by the virtue signalers on the left. 

Budde is apparently a leftist activist and always has been, but you would think that she could restrain herself at least one day. 

A passionate believer in the gospel of Jesus and the Episcopal Church’s particular witness, Bishop Budde is committed to the spiritual and numerical growth of congregations and developing new expressions of Christian community. She believes that Jesus calls all who follow him to strive for justice and peace, and to respect the dignity of every human being. To that end, Bishop Budde is an advocate and organizer in support of justice concerns, including racial equity, gun violence prevention, immigration reform, the full inclusion of LGBTQ+ persons, and the care of creation.





How silly of me to think that a leftist could exercise the most modest amount of self-restraint and decorum. 

No doubt you would find that Budde is a big fan of “norms” and has a strong desire for “unity.” She is also, apparently, firmly committed to the idea Hispanics are only good for picking crops. 

Trump was gracious about the whole thing, which is mildly surprising. To get excoriated from the pulpit by a Bishop must not have been pleasant, and the looks on Trump’s and Vance’s faces during the political harangue were revealing. Most of all, though, Melania looked like she was staring daggers. 

One does wonder why there was no discussion about the possibility that Budde would do this sort of thing. She was a very outspoken critic of Trump during his first term and accused him of holding views antithetical to Christianity, unlike people who believe that God did not actually create men and women but rather a spectrum of indefinable beings. 





I hope some wag finds a photo of Budde raising her right arm and posts it as proof that she gave a Nazi salute. Turnabout is fair play.
