Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde of the Episcopal Diocese of Washington said Monday evening that she is"outraged" after President Donald Trump visited her church without advance notice to share"a message antithetical to the teachings of Jesus."
Her pointed comments came after the President walked from the White House to St. John's Episcopal Church, a house of worship used by American presidents for more than a century. Peaceful protesters just outside the White House gates were dispersed with tear gas, flash grenades and rubber bullets. It was all, apparently, so Trump could visit the church. "I am outraged. The President did not pray when he came to St.
Church also stands 8i8i88
alecjohnbaldwin Fake news
I hate you
File a trespassing complaint. You can forgive him anyway in prayer...
LOOK AT THAT HAND on the Bible..is that an old Vampire hand or what..Thats a devils claw he's using..Look with soft eyes you'll see a hell of a lot more..
Zephyrus67 Everything is the same, even the thumb.
BS, I don't believe a word your network says.... Fake news!
What we see on TV is the America of Biden, Pelosi, Schumer & the rest of the state & local Democratic Party corrupt ideology at work. The cop that killed Floyd worked for a city/state run top to bottom by Democrats. Democrats can't run from any of this, they own ALL of it.
Despicable use of a Bible and Christianity to win brownie points! Outrageous! The Bible warns against doing this. It says there is a special place in hell for those who do this under false pretences. Does this man have even one advisor who he listens to?
He is reaching out to his 'base' which is predominately evangelical. However he neglected to notice that is Catholic Church. Perhaps they didn't have enough rubber bullets to get him to a Pentecostal church?
Fake evil news spitting green vile again must of did something to disrupt their demon souls
Is that the same hand he grabs women's pu$$ies with?
I saw almost the same picture of hitler and other dictators taking the same picture with a bible. We are in trouble America
A hidden message sent?
Their churches stand for the abuse of children how is that something to be proud of
MEIN KAMPF !!!
Shut up liberal
Fuck Trump 😠
Fools all of you
Jesus said in Matthew 23 to not flow the example of religious leaders because its all for show. But hey I get it -the Bishop would have never been on CNN teaching the “love of christ” instead of the “hate of Trump”
And?
The president is not responsible for what those black Idiots do!!! By the way, you all voted him democratically ☺️🇺🇸 greetings from Germany 🇩🇪hahaha usa
The Devil 👿
VOTE!
That bible should have burned him and those who stood to take that photo. What a hypocrite along with Barr, Kushner and the other flunkies. Trump only infuriated the situation, for the purpose of taking a photo. What a lie for everything he stands for. Totally White Supremacy!
Using the church & the Bible to promote himself! Hypocrite. He should read Matt 11:28-29 “Come to me, all you who are weary & burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.'
What in the hell was this guy doing. Walking to a church, picks up a bible and poses for picks. What a dooch bag. Really.
😂🤣 idiot
Trump the fake Christian stands before a church with a bible, symbols of peace and compassion, after his thugs tear gas peaceful protestors drawing attention to the murder of an innocent black man by white police. The hypocrisy would be funny if it wasn’t so repulsive.
FAKE NEWS
Ah, Episcopal. Now such a statement makes sense, considering the source. Restoring our Judeo Christian values would go a long way toward promoting peace and prosperity in our country. Atheism and anarchy will never prevail against God.
Cnn is horrible all they do all day every day is spread fear , anger and just all around bad vibes SMH and since when is a BIble copyrighted ? The word of god is for everyone your just mad he didnt burst into flames ruins your narrative that he is satan.

Next time you see him posing like this he will be in court.
FAKE NEWS AGAIN !
I guess folks need permission to go to her church.
Headline should be...'Trump Touches A Bible'. HypocriteInChief
Such bold faced hypocrisy!
So I guess not everyone is welcome.
Hey even some bishops are assholes
Thank you Bishop....im so outraged..the bible is not a prop..how dare he
Only God know's the hearts of people. If you are white, why are you any less responsible for the racism that exists than the President. Did not Jesus tell us not to pray in Public where everyone can see. If the President did that you would be the first to call him a hypocrite'
Of Course. The Guy is Evil .
Even Apartied regime in South Africa was using Bible to justify oppression of Africans
Trump is the crème de la crème of sociopaths... I mean really... what did this stunt achieve?
CNN is very unfair and unbalanced. I now watch Fox. NY mayor should be fired. Who has a curfew at 11:pm.
Whatever
Hes done more for Chritian rights and and for Israel than any pres in recent history. She should be pissed about the assholes who burned her church
He has to be chased out of office
At least when Leslie Nielsen impersonates the POTUS he is stupid, but not criminal. You have succeeded on choosing the worst possible person to be in charge in the most critical moment in 50 years. ClimateChange WHO BLEACH WhiteSupremacist GeorgeFloyd BlackLivesMatter
The 'church' has been ignoring the bible for years so no big deal
About time one leader stands up to these thugs proud to watch POTUS walk to a historic church that thugs destroyed Great job PRESS
What’s wrong if Trump holds the Bible? Can’t believe a bishop will be so narrow minded. Is this article even real ? Sorry journalism is as good as dead with fake news , biased view points and CNN is not exactly a good source of truth
Just can’t help yourselves, can you? Are you one of the ANTIFA friendly media outlets I keep reading about? You support the riots and looting and the co-opting of a valid protest by the black community. Once again, you show that YOU are the enemy of the black community.
Satan is allowed to read the bible....and to hold it in his hand.
Roselyn_Sanchez Cristo Vive! Mexicans 4 Trump. Latinos4trump
His church probably stands for child abuse.
Really!!!! KNUCKLEHEAD holding a BIBLE is like the SUN RISING IN THE WEST!!!!! The US needs a LEADER!!!!!! someone who cares, someone who will help them to heal!!!! Please dear God, give the people the opportunity for change in November. You know they need it!!!
I just walked away from the Episcopalian faith. Since when does someone need permission to stand in front of a church to take a picture. GTFO of here. Meanwhile the Mother of my church says we can’t defend our church from looters because it is a space of peace and mercy 🙄🖕🏻🇺🇸
Is God Himself happy with this President?
I'm surprised he had the audacity to go outside
Other bishop on other channel was moved to tears by it. But CNN is FAKE news.
But not outraged at the ppl that burnt the church WITHOUT PERMISSION.
Everyone who Love communist party's comes to China ! Include CNN and black man,here is your love!
Antichrist
bairdjulia How many have worked out that his strategy is to wedge the governors and mayors.
It’s about time the church called his BS.
Morrison is a big fan of TrumpDictator
Start proposing solutions cnni CNN You’re quick to criticize, but slow to propose solutions. It’s leadership...give it a try. This is not ONLY Trump’s issue. Where’s the strong Democratic response? stopdividing
Next time he walks across the street to get a single photo of him holding a bible at a church he’s not even wanted at make sure he knows it’s upside down first ok😑
He is antithetical to everything he ever came across
假消息
Amen!
Bunch of pedos criticizing a child rapist. This story means a lot 👌🏻
mathew 5,6
Elpidophoros Archbishop, can you please make a statement on this. Your words are important to followers like me who are hurt by the use of the Bible as a prop.
FAKENEWSALERT AGAIN That is NOT what was expressed and CNN knows this.
realDonaldTrump bunker bitch
Hmmm.
That dude seems a bit strange But he can read upside down
GloriaBorger Bishslapped
If the people stay peaceful the states should leave them protest
He has hidden behind Evangelicals, claiming to be Christian. But all it is, is a way for him to get what he wants. And trust me there is nothing Christian about that!
Bible is upside down. Such a political photo-op.
Trump uses Christianity for his political posturing. Posing with a bible for a photo op, the man with zero empathy doesn’t want to understand, “Love thy neighbor as Yourself”. Hate, deceit, and lies are not qualities cherished in that church.
GloriaBorger
He doesn't need permission, Bishop. Maybe, he got tired of rioters trying to get into his house.
The Bible is not a prop. EVER!
This man is a pure clown Unbelievable 🤣🤣🤣 Can’t believe this is American president Just hilarious 😂
Everything Obama did was wonderful because he was destroying our country and Yrump could do the exact same thing as Obama and you would criticize
realDonaldTrump His messages strongly encourage people who are worried about what would be next.
America is great not because of trump, it’s because of generations and generations of American people, no matter class or colour. All he wanted is THE POTUS, the strongest power in the world.
for all we know realDonalTrump is holding the Satanic Bible with the cover burrowed from the Holy Bible 🤣
What a phony con man.
'Traitor to the church outsources hate to CNN'
Why do you hate America?
