the media pretending this is offensive but not the Trump bashing at both funerals.

Who hired or asked this pastor to do the eulogy? They had to know his style and opinions.

Even though I agree with the pastor on this particular issue, what does it have to do with Aretha Franklin??
Tacky.

Sadly to say, we’ve organized a number of funerals. The clergy have always invited our thoughts and asked our approval on the sermons.

Unless the sermon was an afterthought to the family, they approved this and are now throwing the guy under the bus.

Either way, didn’t care or cowardice, neither speaks well for Franklin’s family.

Agreed. This politicization of *everything* is ugly, regardless of which side it comes from.

Granted that this pastor may well feel desperate, given the rate at which blacks are killing other blacks, and he likely has personal connections to that issue, while Meghan McCain has no such life-or-death excuse.
