‘I Am Outraged’: D.C. Episcopal Bishop Decries Trump Clearing Protestors With Tear Gas to Use Church as a ‘Prop’
Mediaite ^ | 6-01-2020 | KJ Edelman

Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde expressed her outrage toward President Donald Trump after Trump used her Washington D.C. St. John’s Episcopal Church for a photo op following his address to the nation, telling CNN’s Anderson Cooper, “I just can’t believe what my eyes have seen tonight.” Budde and other members of the church didn’t know Trump would visit their church until they saw it on the news, they said. Budde ripped Trump for his “abused of sacred symbols” and was “outraged” that her church was used for political gain.

The night before, the police and secret service risked their lives to save that church. I’m sure Trump, when he saw what was happening. Now this useless hemorrhoid is notching about it.

Laugh and point. Laugh and point some more.

Her anti-Christian cult smells like poo and astroglide.

I am a proud rehabilitated episcopalian. They were a bunch of liberal jerks when I bailed in 1970.

My initial question — were protesters actually tear gassed to clear a path for the president?

Or is that merely this female cleric’s assertion?

In other words, is she lying?

How did she have time to speak with CNN, shouldn’t she be out rioting?

I would have preferred that the POTUS would have found a Christian place of worship from which to make his point...

It was sort of like the Pope standing inside a mosque (which is certainly equivalent to Dante's 6th circle of Hell) and wishing everyone a merry Christmas...

Speaking as a former Episcopalian who was raised in an Episcopal church that used the Latin Mass and was a shining example of Christianity (the church NOT me)... I would like to have seen the POTUS standing in the wreckage of this vile communist institution saying: "You made your bed, now sleep in it!"

She looks like a character from a Monty Python movie. I predicted the “pastor” would be a liberal who would not come out to thank him. I had no idea it was a size dyke playing dress up. I’ll bet there are always plenty of parking at it’s services.

“Her” pastorship immediately makes me suspect liberalist church.

Another pastor of this church was on FOX earlier and I did not get any “outrage” at Trump.

Speaking of which, where is her outrage over the THUGS that burned her own church?

What the HELL is wrong with people these days?

FOX interviewed the minister/priest of the church right after the President went there. He was ecstatic, almost crying with joy. This Bishop person (and I use the term lightly) is pathetic.

“Reverend” Mariann? I don’t think so.

Those police ‘taking a knee’ was pathetically bowing down to violence of citizens and burning and destruction of our cities.

The police on their knees was a full photo op demonstration of total SUBMISSION to the terrorists!

Very interesting thing about these antifa terrorists.

Qualifications of Bishops

3 The saying is sure: If any one aspires to the office of bishop,[a] he desires a noble task. 2 Now a bishop must be above reproach, the husband of one wife, temperate, sensible, dignified, hospitable, an apt teacher, 3 no drunkard, not violent but gentle, not quarrelsome, and no lover of money. 4 He must manage his own household well, keeping his children submissive and respectful in every way; 5 for if a man does not know how to manage his own household, how can he care for God’s church? 6 He must not be a recent convert, or he may be puffed up with conceit and fall into the condemnation of the devil;[b] 7 moreover he must be well thought of by outsiders, or he may fall into reproach and the snare of the devil.[c]

CNN got to that oriestcabd shamed him into now condemning Trump. I suppose his bishop boss also gave him the word.

Gutless coward.
