Anyone have an idea of what point of the memorial service this was?
What are the papers in everyone’s hands and why are they reading from them?
If this is a “liturgical” section,a “hymn”, or prayer, I can understand Ivanka, Jared and Melania not participating. Trump was raised Episcopalian so his background regarding heterodox fellowship would be a bit looser than the others mentioned yet, he is not participating.
I am lead to think that this is a recitation that fetes Bush41.
It’s an Episcopal cathedral but the POTUS was raised Presbyterian which, however, is not much different than Episcopalian, depending on high church or low church.
