So it was human Disney princess, Hope Hicks who came up with Trump's photo-op publicity stunt of walking - so we know it wasn't Trump's idea - across the way to a church holding a book - further evidence it wasn't Trump's idea - to stand in front of a church he doesn't go to and whose pastor and Bishop gave him no permission to use for this stunt but who were outraged by his use of the Church building. The Bishop's reaction was spot on,
" He did not pray. He did not mention George Floyd, he did not mention the agony of people who have been subjected to this kind of horrific expression of racism and white supremacy for hundreds of years. We need a president who can unify and heal. He has done the opposite of that, and we are left to pick up the pieces."
I think the church should pointedly dis-invite Trump from going there again and using the building as a photo-op after he has his storm troopers clear the area with teargas. From what I read it's the same church Robert Mueller used, though apparently he actually attended worship there. It made me wonder if he thinks he might have been a little more forthcoming about what his investigation turned up or if they might have been a little more interested in revealing the depravity of the man his good buddy, Barr has been turning into America's dictator.
