So Trump used riot police and tear gas to clear peaceful protesters from a church way, just so he can go take a P.R. photo. Disgusting.
The U.S.A is really no different than China. Trump and Conservatives always want to make their country more like China. China is passing a law that makes insulting the national anthem illegal. Which is what Trump wanted to do when the football players were taking a knee in protest during the US anthem. And now Trump want to send in the military to be a tough guy against people exercising their democratic right to protest. How is that different than Hong Kong?

The Rev. Mariann Budde, whose diocese St. John's belongs to, said she was "outraged" by Trump's visit and noted that he didn't pray while stopping by the church, a landmark known for its regular visits from sitting presidents since the early 19th century.
He didn't come to church to pray, he didn't come to church to offer condolences to those who are grieving, he didn't come to commit to healing our nation – all the things we would expect and long for from the highest leader in the land.

Get Trump out of office now before he burns down the entire country!!!

It looked very phony.

Trump was out in front of the church. She doesn't like it ? Tough shit.

He used this church. It is a sacred sanctuary.to people of christian faith.

Man why did the left miss so much school? Protest is not the same as looting, destroying nor are they interchangeable.

I have prayed in St. John's. I have honored the memory of a colleague in this building. Why did this man come? He is trampling on sacred space.

But it's okay to burn it down.
STFU you disingenuous piece of shit.

A sacred place? Why were you, a leftist bigot and lunatic, there then?

peaceful protesters dont carry rocks and clubs and burn down buildings,,,

These were peaceful protestors. Trump is a dictatorial thug and a animal. The Arlington Police force responded to a request from the Park Police to do this. However they realize they were had and have since withdrawn.

They were not looting or destroying. They were peaceful protestors who were attacked by the police so Trump can have a cheap photo up. This was pretty much confirmed by the Arlington Police who were involved. They have withdrawn their officers.

What protests were peaceful? Is arson a sign of peace?
HOW were the Arlington police "had". Please be specific and have the guts to respond, for once.

And why is the bishop of the Episcopal church politicizing this whole issue, condemning Trump for standing
in front of the church but saying nothing about Joe Biden's comments insulting Trump?

Trump did not want a law making protest illegal, you lying whore.

St. John's church was hit by arsonists. How is setting fire to the church "peaceful"?
If you are going to blatantly lie and least don't be so stupid about it.

Because I have every right to go to St.John's and pray to my God..

Did you notice the front door to the church was boarded up ? Did you know rioters set a portion of the church on fire ? Trump used it as a backdrop, to say this crap has to stop ! You're concerned about the church, right ? Then please acknowledge that rioters did this, and it needs to be pointed out !

 

[Eric Arthur Blair]

Because I have every right to go to St.John's and pray to my God..

But you have no right to say who can enter a church and who must leave. You're a hypocrite and an ignorant bigot. You defend the animals who tried to set the church on fire but attack the man who opposed them.
Fuck you, disgusting liar!

LOL!!!!!!

Yeah, Trump is burning shit, not his political opponents?

Dude, you're guilty of blackmail you know....claiming that getting rid of Trump is a solution. Lol.

 

[mudwhistle]

Let the bishop stew.

Who cares?

Looked like one of those Lesbian preachers that pass themselves off as a person of the cloth.
Jesus wouldn't act like that fake Bishop and she needs to put a cork in it.

When the president comes to your city everything gets groomed. If the president wants to TAKE BACK the street and the church, the street will be cleared

"I find it baffling and reprehensible that any Catholic facility would allow itself to be so egregiously misused and manipulated in a fashion that violates our religious principles, which call us to defend the rights of all people even those with whom we might disagree,” the archbishop said in a statement. “Saint Pope John Paul II was an ardent defender of the rights and dignity of human beings. His legacy bears vivid witness to that truth. He certainly would not condone the use of tear gas and other deterrents to silence, scatter or intimidate them for a photo opportunity in front of a place of worship and peace.”

[Correll]

WHat has the Archbishop had to say about the murder of innocents by mobs taking place in the burning cites of this country?


Or is that less important to this "Man of God" than attacking the President?



FUCK THE ARCHBISHOP.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

What did the Archbishop say about those who tried to burn the church to the ground?
