  1. Reporter: Does trump go to your church at all?
    Bishop: No
    Me: 😂😂😂(of course he doesn’t!)

    1. @Evelyn Goh actually Jesus said his kingdom was not part of the world. It is also mentioned in the Bible that all the world is lying in the power of the wicked one. That means all of the world’s governments are controlled by Satan. To be Christian is to follow Christ. The follow Christ is to follow his example. Christ was not violent. Even when he was being arrested he chastise Paul for cutting off the ear of the officer. Because violence is never Justified under the New Covenant he made.

    2. DD 1 Timorhy 2:2 Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. – the bishop was not following this advice.

    3. @Bwana Yes, the Bible does talk against homosexuality. However, he did go in front it to take a photo with a Bible that’s not even his. Using the Holy Bible for a political stunt is also an abomination and ugly. You sound like a real hypocrite.

    4. @Evelyn Goh
      We can pray for people in authority without condoning their actions. The President is neither a dictator nor a god

  2. “Buildings can be rebuilt, lives cannot be rebuilt from the dead”. Words that shall raise in history to come! 🌊🌊🌊💯

    1. I am pretty sure that means so much to the man you POS protesters killed in Oakland. Patrick Underwood didn’t deserve to be sacrificed for a pair of Air Jordans. You are disgusting garbage.

    2. “Small Businesses will go bankrupt, because Democrats let criminal trash just run around and commit crimes without any repercussions”

    4. @Craig Haveman no, Racist cops are costing life’s. People are mad and want justice, this is the same crap that has been going on for to long. We all want peaceful protest and no rioting, but when they play the blind eye to racism this is the result. They need to arrest the other 3 former Police Officers and charge them with murder in the first degree, not the BS that the DA said, even with video, they still try to find a way to charge him on a lesser charge.

    1. Nobody knew the Anti Christ would come as a fat balding idiot, who paints his face orange, dyes his hair gold, and combs it to look like a crop circle. 

      But everybody knew it would be Evangelicals who love Him to death.

    1. Shamsuddin Ahmed , Chris Cuomo is one who “ lives in fool’s paradise when” he fails to address & report on MEANINGFUL issues related to vandals & thieves.

    2. Thomas Reilly 👈” obviously” in your own perception, as U show disconnect to reality. Clearly, this “paradise” realm, is a generalization not to personalize, jack !

    3. @Frank Elizalde
      The vandals & thieves are being reported on non-stop. Some of us can think of more than one issue at once.

    ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ thanks for sharing this

    2. We have stooped very low. When bringing in religious people. To indirectly chose sides by talking out of the side of her mouth.
      Now some of you are using the great MLK for your Liberalist agenda. All side are doing wrong ie in sin. So your lady should come forth with a pure heart and with the full truth.

    1. Me Sim With Trump leading the country via twitter rants and telling police to force peaceful protestors to move by any means necessary just so he can get a photo op holding a bible that he probably doesn’t read instead of standing before his country’s people and leading them with compassion, I don’t think anyone anywhere is surprised at all. I think it was just a matter of time. Trumps a fool. Not a political leader.

    2. @kevin hillhouse Excuse me, I think it’s funny how you would assume something like that. Where would you get an idea like that anyways? Honestly you couldn’t be any farther from the truth. 🤔 Not that it’s really anyone’s business but myself and my family have never, ever taken anything for nothing. We have always paid every single penny for what we have and I wouldn’t want it any other way. We’ve always believed in the rule of never spend money that you don’t have to spend and it’s been a great rule to live by. We’ve also chosen to have only one credit card instead of a bunch of them. It’s always smart to have at least one and that one is very seldom ever used but when we do, it’s paid in full the next billing. So what we do have to show because of our beliefs is a home that was fully paid off long before it even needed to be, no debt, and we’ve long been saving for retirement. Of course even while feeling so fortunate for all of that I still feel like so many other Americans and worry about our retirement years. Everyday we’re having our rightfully hard earned money stollen from right under our noses by the totally greedy and/or completely corrupt! I truly believe that it’s time to stop letting the president influence others with all of his nonsense and the hate that he seems to have for anyone that he feels is beneath him, which to him is everyone. We really need things to change in this country, so much is so long overdue! I sincerely hope that all of this hate for one another ends soon and for good! Like I have heard and so nicely said, we are one race, the human race and I hope that people will remember that. Well Kevin I hope that you and your loved ones have a nice safe evening or whatever it is where you are and take care now. ☮️

    3. @Christa Simon So it sounds like we are way overdue for a huge change in this country don’t you think? ☮️

  4. Bro you really need to question yourself as a person if a bishop even thinks this bad of you

    1. Darlene Hawkins – I guess I could just copy paste your “comeback”, in reply. You have nothing to say. You’re just trolling, proving my point.

  5. Trump had heard the expression “going to church”, and thought it meant going to a church, waving a bible around for a minute, and going home.

    1. @mike oren- You’re confused. Psycho tRump would never tear gas, let alone shoot any of his white supremacist supporters. He only tear gasses peaceful protesters.

    2. I think the people dumb enough to be impressed by that pretentious photo op are the supporters who were already willing to follow him into hell. The best response to this would be for the protesters to show up tomorrow wearing blond Trump wigs and holding Bibles.

    3. What a visual! Suppose all of us went to church every Sunday morning with tear gas to get rid of anyone in our way, waving a Bible in front of the church and then going back home. Should we bring enough tear gas for the way back home?

  6. I pray for the day that the military takes a knee much like some of the police have started to.

    I feel bad for us all right now, so much pain, so much injustice.

    1. The national guard laid down their shields in Tennessee today when protesters asked them to. It’s a start.

  7. 3:31 He didn’t pray! He stood there like a jerk, holding (supposedly) the Bible! He is a reality tv show host and we are all involved in his nightmare script!

    1. Jessica Stanley dont judge – pray for him – or you will be judged. Matthew 7:1 1“Judge[a] not, that you be not judged. 2For with what [b]judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.

    2. I have watched pious people and preachers in my church and they all hold the bible in front of them with two hands like they are cradling it and respecting its importance and Trump is holding above his head and waving it around and showing his lack of understanding of what the Bible actually stands for. I stopped attending church some years ago when my long preacher had left to move to a larger town and church and the man whom replaced him made me go to sleep and seem to lack enthusiasm or the ability to make passages relevant and understandable for the younger parishioners of which my son was one but I still respect the bible and religion.

    3. @Evelyn Goh
      We most certainly do judge people when we are choosing a President of the United States. I just wish more people had used better judgment 4 years ago

  8. Someone on his staff has been watching Richard III “And, see, a book of prayer in his hand,
    True ornaments to know a holy man.” But no one is buying it. A desecration and pervertion of Sacred text.

    1. Ozark caveman she is hurt poor thing because trump did not ask her for permission – sob sob sob!

  9. 0:16 I can see some one fell and another person went to help and the way the police treat these people is disgusting.

  10. The people in the Future may have a good laugh when they read theFuture History Books about trump photo op.

  11. I’m surprised that mf didn’t burst into flames standing in front on that church holding the word.

  12. “I’ve seen firsthand that being president doesn’t change who you are. It reveals who you are.” – Michelle Obama

    1. @CurbsideChat Now, can you tell us… What has Melania Accomplished while First Lady???

      I ask seriously??? What has she accomplished?? Please enlighten us…

    1. Yeah he only reads the “articles” right??? If it didn’t have pictures he would never pick it up.

  13. The European nations should all leave NATO and leave America standing alone.
