The escalation of racialized rhetoric from the President of the United States has evoked responses from all sides of the political spectrum. On one side, African American leaders have led the way in rightfully expressing outrage. On the other, those aligned with the President seek to downplay the racial overtones of his attacks, or remain silent.
As faith leaders who serve at Washington National Cathedral ¬ the sacred space where America gathers at moments of national significance we feel compelled to ask: After two years of President Trumps words and actions, when will Americans have enough?
This week, President Trump crossed another threshold. Not only did he insult a leader in the fight for racial justice and equality for all persons; not only did he savage the nations from which immigrants to this country have come; but now he has condemned the residents of an entire American city. Where will he go from here?
Make no mistake about it, words matter. And, Mr. Trumps words are dangerous.

I am OUTRAGED at these comments from these so-called religious leaders--a bunch of lefties all of them!
Bishop Budde should just relax and have a nice, hot cup of STFU.
What racism?
I’d say Make the Episcopalians/Anglicans Great Again, but they were never great. Tolkien nailed ‘em decades ago... A pathetic and shadowy medley of half-remembered traditions and mutilated beliefs. And that was before they went completely insane on LGBT stuff, abortion, etc.
My God, how do these people get away with these complete fabrications? There is NOTHING which our President has done to warrant these outrageous lies. These people just make stuff up and the MSM reports it as truth. There are no more fact checkers. Even the New York Times has said they are going to attack our President over this imaginary "racism".
[[What racism?]]
Exactly! All i hear from the left is how racist Trump is- yet they NEVER give ANY examples except to point to his stating the FACT that mexico IS sending their worst to our states, and claiming that Trump was calling all mexicans criminals
They have to INVENT thigns that trump never said in order to make him into a racist-
The shocking thing about this is that it’s coming from so called religious people- what they are doing is bearing false witness again Him- trying to destroy him by spewing LIES about him- this is something the Word of God warns Christians NOT to do because it is totally unfair, unjust and a disreputable thing to do- it is what the unsaved people do because they have no righteous morals to guide them- it’s what the Father of Lies, Satan does- that is why God said DO Not do it!
There was far, far, far more racism coming out of the Obama administration than probably any other modern US Presidential administration. The Obama Presidency pushed the opposite of racial healing, and in many ways it legitimized anti-white racial hatred. How ironic, and tragic.
Why can’t you get a husband, make some food and STFU...
These people are shameful people- disgusting liars- doing hte deeds of the Evil One- and they know darn well they are too- they know they are lying- but they don’t care because they serve the Evil One- Their hearts are desperately wicked-
Romans 1
24Therefore God gave them over in the desires of their hearts to impurity for the dishonoring of their bodies with one another.
25They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator, who is forever worthy of praise! Amen.
26For this reason God gave them over to dishonorable passions. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones.
and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved. And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.
John 3:19
I looked this up in Google, and several of the stories that came up on this story are dated “July 31, 2019.” What’s up with that? Don’t they know what day it is?
I saw a sign outside a local church today advertising a Climate Change Strike. I couldn’t help but say to my wife when people lose faith in God they next put their faith in politics - as if politics can save us.
PDJT is going to win re-election with largest margin since Reagan.
Then watch the heads explode...........
Lesbo.
The Anglican Church is a heretical group founded by a former king of England for his own personal purposes. It has no claim whatsoever to Christian orthodoxy or to speak for genuine Christian doctrine.
Why is Steve Hinton on Fox talking about something that happened a month ago?
Yeah, our President unloaded on frauds such as Sharpton, Cummings, Tlaib whatever, etc. Halle-frickin-lujah!
It’s about time to call these race hustlers out and expose them for the frauds they are!
The dishonesty of the left knows no limits. When Trump said that Baltimore was infested with rats, and that no human being would want to live there, which he said as a defense against the citizens who are being neglected by their own local government, the press twisted that as if he had said that the citizens themselves were the infestation, and that Trump wanted to exterminate them.
I loved the whole Baltimore scuffle. Trump calls Baltimore a dump, liberals get all butthurt and angry, and then voluminous amounts of evidence come out that show that Baltimore, is in fact, a dump.

The bitch is a liar.
And what did the Baltimore press say about it?
They attacked him as a far right activist trying to score points for Trump.
"The effort was organized by pro-Trump activist Scott Presler. He claimed the event was not political. Yes, he was inspired to come by tweets from President Donald Trump describing the area, represented by U.S. Rep. Elijah Cummings, as a 'rodent infested mess,'" the editors wrote. "But the visit wasnt about showing support or animosity for either man, he said."
"Call us skeptical," the paper remarked before going off on a litany of excuses, complaints, and verbal attacks as to why it was so wrong for out of towners to clean up the city.
"Look, we appreciate anyone who is willing to roll up their sleeves to help Baltimore. More than 170 people came from all over the country and cleaned up nearly 12 tons of trash, according to Mr. Preslers Twitter feed." the paper claimed.
"But if this was all about 'Americans helping Americans,' why all the videos of Baltimore residents thanking Mr. Trump for bringing attention to the issue? We happen to know that not everybody in West Baltimore feels that way. And in the same posts as the videos, why the frequent reminders that this is in act Mr. Cummings district?," the editors pondered.
They then attacked Presler for posting a photo of a newspaper from President Barack Obama's inauguration in 2008 that the organizers and volunteers stumbled upon while hauling debris from the streets.
“As faith leaders who serve at Washington National Cathedral”
Notice they didn’t say Christians. Because they aren’t. Episcopalians aren’t Christians. They don’t believe in the Gospel, they don’t believe in sin, they don’t believe in the Bible, they don’t believe in living in obedience to the Lord.
