Trump Demands Apology From Episcopal Church Over Bishop’s Remarks
Following a national prayer service at Washington National Cathedral, President Trump condemned Bishop Mariann Budde’s remarks as “nasty” and politically motivated, criticizing her focus on marginalized groups and immigrants. He took to Truth Social to demand an apology from Budde and the Episcopal Church, alleging her speech was inappropriate and uninspiring. Trump further criticized the service’s overall quality, deeming it “boring and uninspiring.” The President’s response followed Budde’s plea for mercy and recognition of the fears and vulnerabilities of various communities, including LGBTQ+ individuals and undocumented immigrants.
