Hold Up Everybody It's National Day Of Prayer!

By Frances Langum — May 3, 2018

So in another bend over to the religious right, his base, Donald Trump announces that today is the National Day of Prayer (for his presidency? Good luck with that.) Of course, the evangelical church of Donald J. Trump looks the other way at paying hush money to porn stars, so long as he's dismantling the wall between (their) church and state...

Trump’s latest appeal to evangelicals: a new office to protect ‘religious liberty,’ signing today one of his irrelevant orders beginning a, wait for it, “faith and opportunities “ initiative. Christ- separation of church and state? Gone.https://t.co/uXIHXVEozZ via @voxdotcom

...and smacking the black guy for not being religious, by which we mean white.

Trump says U.S. more religious now than under Obama: "You notice the big difference between now and two or three years ago?"

Remember the "little cracker" he takes for "forgiveness"?

"When I drink my little wine ... and have my little cracker, I guess that's a form of asking for forgiveness."

Watching #Trump preach to #Evangelicals at the National Prayer Breakfast was disgusting. His faux pandering should remind us all that our founders specifically addressed the separation of church & state. #Moron continues to destroy this important founding principle of USA! 🇺🇸 pic.twitter.com/lFOx0FfgId
