Trump demands apology from bishop
The Hill ^ | 01/22/25 6:27 AM ET | by Alex Gangitano

Posted on 01/22/2025 3:44:42 AM PST by RandFan

President Trump early Wednesday morning slammed the reverend at a National Cathedral prayer service for the inauguration who called on him to have mercy on transgender children and immigrant families.

Trump, in a lengthy post on Truth Social, called Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde’s remarks “nasty” and not smart.

“The so-called Bishop who spoke at the National Prayer Service on Tuesday morning was a Radical Left hard line Trump hater. She brought her church into the World of politics in a very ungracious way. She was nasty in tone, and not compelling or smart,” he said.

“She failed to mention the large number of illegal migrants that came into our Country and killed people. Many were deposited from jails and mental institutions,” the president added. “It is a giant crime wave that is taking place in the USA. Apart from her inappropriate statements, the service was a very boring and uninspiring one.”

Trump also called on her and the church to apologize to him.

“She is not very good at her job! She and her church owe the public an apology!”

Hours earlier, Budde made a plea to Trump during her sermon as he was sitting in the first pew at the service.

Those are about the least popular positions, doing trans surgery on children and illegal aliens getting free housing, food, etc. Only a few limousine liberal Episcopalians who watch Rachel Maddow agree with her.

Also, clergy should not be speaking that directly about politics, particularly not in that situation.

Not sure where people get that she is lesbian. Maybe she is, but she is married to a man and not openly lesbian.

She or her church, need to lose their tax exempt status.

“The chief danger that confronts the coming century will be religion without the Holy Ghost, Christianity without Christ, forgiveness without repentance, salvation without regeneration, politics without God, heaven without hell.”

“Trump demands apology from bishop” And rightly so.

The Bishop is in the wrong line of work, she should be marching with the other Leftist haters shrieking nasty unAmerican chants.

This person owes us all an apology. President Trump and his policies were voted in to office in a landslide. She and her twisted fearmongering ideas can live on in her twisted brain.

She was a liberal hack pretending to be a pastor. She showed why women are not supposed to be leaders in the Church, an emotional wreck.

Saw a video clip of what took place.

Trump rolled his eyes at what she said. It was great.

Do you think the people that spoke out against slavery were wrong? Do you think Bonhoeffer or Niemoller were wrong in speaking out against Hitler? But as I stated, Budder is missing out on some facts.

1 Timothy 2: 12And I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man, but to be in silence.

1 Corinthians 14:34-35
Women are to be silent in the churches. They are not permitted to speak, but must be in submission, as the law says. /If they wish to inquire about something, they are to ask their own husbands at home; for it is dishonorable for a woman to speak in the church.

She is a walking, talking explanation of why the Episcopal Church is steadily losing members. This may accelerate that process.

With all due respect, I loved that the President didn’t react as she spewed her opinion. The left is always looking for a reaction. The dumb lady doesn’t understand things have changed and she unleashed a torrent upon herself.

Your move “bishop.”

I love the spiritual clarity that comes when demons and those who are possessed wholly by them... manifest themselves in publicly undeniable means and methods.

Christians of many rites and denominations... exist everywhere... and if they truly have followed with First Corinthians 5:5. Well... we can all read the happy result.

This particular “denomination” has very few left in it that “believe” God and his Word. But even here, there may be a few. To be sure by denominations, there are differences in faith, some are in serious error, some dally about in schism, some boldly walk in heresy, some embrace and promote abject blasphemy.

Some need a few moments in the cage with Satan for destruction of the fleshly demonic infestation they carry.

This group needs that kind of correction.
They are so proud and glorying in their hatred of God’s words... and commands

Ananias and Saphira today may be questioning why they were so directly dealt with by God... just for lying just once or twice about how much money they made on a real estate ‘deal’.

NO religious group is without its need to repent. Catholics, Orthodox, Lutherans, Baptists, Pentecostals and even some of the more benign “cult leaning” Christian heretics... all.

The good news is God is able to bring us all to repentance. Jesus told his entire cadre of disciples “aka; The apostles”... unless YOU all repent you shall all likewise perish. that was at one point. Paul said to confess and repent before taking up the body and blood of Christ in communion or via Eucharistic operations, to avoid the breakout of God’s severe judgement and correction “en masse” or individually. This needs to be retaught to us in every form of Christian pursuit.

Eli had horrific judgement for his wicked leadership in Israel. God said to Israel once, you want quail instead of my manna?, you are going to get what you want and then choke and die on it.

Judgement begins at the house of of God. With me. and others ‘professing’ Christ. I think we are past being there...

The fire of the Lord occasionally burns amongst men who publicly profess him as their lord and deliverer.
Nancy with the broken hip and Mitch McC with being struck both deaf and dumb ( always thought he was dumb, myself )

In the Bible God promises to purify the sons of Levi that they may offer unto the Lord the required sacrifice in holiness... so that we can enter his presence as a people and a holy nation, with complete household salvation.

I think we are there. Lord, deliver us from evil.

Not only that, it was merely a virtue signal. She’s not doing anything to help them. She’s just using them for an attaboy.

Maybe someone should tell the Church to “shut the bishsop”.
