Evangelist Franklin Graham Urges Prayers for Donald Trump by Promoting T-Shirt

Evangelist leader Franklin Graham called the impeachment inquiry of Donald Trump an "unjust inquisition," and claimed the Christian Bible directs Americans to pray for the president.

Graham, the president of Samaritan's Purse and his late father's Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, quoted the Bible Friday in a plea for Americans to purchase a "Pray for 45" T-shirt being sold through his organization's website. Earlier this week, Graham urged Christians to pray for God to give Trump "wisdom and protection" just hours after the House voted in favor of impeachment procedures.

The pro-Trump evangelical and his daughter, Cissie Graham Lynch, both promoted the $15.99 "Pray for 45" T-shirts on social media alongside Bible verses.

"The Bible instructs us to pray for our leaders &@realDonaldTrump needs our prayers. We have t-shirts that are a reminder to "PRAY for 45"—my daughter@CissieGLynch is wearing one. People have asked where they can get one. You can order them at this link," the elder Graham tweeted Friday, showing a picture of his daughter wearing the T-shirt.

Probably Samaritan’s Purse. They do tremendous good for this country. When disaster hits, Hurricane, flood, tornado those big trucks roll in with basic needs.

YES, they do!!! Hurricane Florence flooded the house of a very handicapped daughter of a friend of mine. Samaritan's Purse not only renovated the house but they raised it up 8' off the ground and installed an elevator in it so that it can't flood again. They were absolutely a blessing in this girl's life. God Bless Samaritan's Purse for all the good they do in this world.

It’s difficult because one
Remembers the names one
Has “Differances” with.
Others pop in and out,,,

Maybe I’ll change my
tagline to;
One day Closer,,,,
