Summary
During a National Prayer Service, Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde urged Donald Trump to show mercy to immigrants and the LGBTQ+ community, prompting Trump to criticize her on Truth Social as a “Radical left hard line Trump hater.”
Trump dismissed the service as “boring” and accused Budde of politicizing religion.
Budde, known for her advocacy on justice issues, later explained her appeal aimed to encourage broader compassion.
Despite her message, Trump demanded a public apology, claiming her remarks were ungracious and uninspiring.
Yeah, but he says that because he 100% believed they’d all get Judged when they died and punished for eternity in hell.
While it is a step in the right direction, I suppose, ‘I’m going to be nice to you because you’re going to get what’s coming to you later’ isn’t the best attitude to have, methinks.
