Why does POTUS Prey On The US? He had an opportunity to pray for healing America but allowed federal public safety officers to fire tear gas on peaceful protesters. Why the interest so that he could hold a photo opportunity In front of the church, not reading The Holy Bible but using it as a prop? No religious person American allows peaceful protestors to be shot with tear gas so he may grandstand in front of this church holding The Holy Bible.
If he can not or does not have anything constructive to say while he is holding The Holy Bible, he should just open it and learn.
Since actions speak louder than words, consider the following sequence. One week earlier, Trump demanded that houses of worship be open, and that very same Sunday, he then chose to go and play ⛳️ GOLF.
After calling Putin, he then chose to attack Americans who were protesting peacefully Just to stand alone in front of a church without the consent of the Bishop. What does this really mean, or this is just simply mean spirited? Take a close look at his left hand. Besides Trump’s tiny fingers, is this the white power signal?
Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy name;
thy kingdom come;
thy will be done;
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
the power and the glory,
forever and ever.
Amen.
Did Trump call his Russian confessor to ask for advice or forgiveness?

In God We Trust
‘ The President of the United States stood in front of St. John’s Episcopal Church, lifted up a bible, and had pictures of himself taken. In so doing, he used a church building and the Holy Bible for partisan political purposes. This was done in a time of deep hurt and pain in our country, and his action did nothing to help us or to heal us.
The bible teaches us that “God is love.” Jesus of Nazareth taught, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” The prophet Micah taught that the Lord requires us to “do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God.”
The bible the President held up and the church that he stood in front of representing the values of love, of justice, of compassion, and of a way to heal our hurts.
We need our President, and all who hold office, to be moral leaders who help us to be a people and nation living these values. For the sake of George Floyd, for all who have wrongly suffered, and for the sake of us all, we need leaders to help us to be “one nation, under God, with liberty and justice for all.” Episcopal Church Presiding Bishop Michael Curry:
