Two Catholic bishops have expressed regret about agreeing to a White House meeting that produced a publicly distributed photo of them praying with Donald Trump.
Milwaukee Archbishop Jeffrey Grob, in a statement titled “A Public Apology,” said Sunday that he had received many questions and comments — some of them distraught — about the meeting on Thursday which he and 11 other bishops attended.
He said the meeting was speedily publicized by the White House with photos and a video, without consent of the participants, and less than two weeks away from the midterm elections.
No, the regret it now that it’s not as favorable to align with him. I’m so fucking tired of this born-yesterday BS these people pull out every time.
We’re going to be seeing a lot more of this after Trump’s gone. Everyone will be like “wha?! He was a conman?”
Like those bitches haven’t made their religion political since day one…
You’d think they would have avoided him just because of trump being a pedophile. It’s bad for their PR to bring up all of the sexual abuse stuff again.
yeah theres just something about trumps vibe that church leaders really adore.
I wasn’t aware it went anywhere.
It’s not their fault. It’s in their nature to support pedophiles.
Well, maybe they’ll endorse Democrats, instead, now?
Nah. No chance.
We’ll have exactly the same problems (worse by then) when Dems sweep in next presidency, probably with a zionist at the head of the Democratic party, backed by corporatists money. The Dems wont save us, we’ll have to muddle through ourselves somehow. This is why so many people are looking to coerce the dems to be better rather than focussing solely on republican crimes to the exclusion of the bigger picture.
We sure did well by not punishing the last set of confederate traitors.
There needs to be real consequences or the fascists will keep doing it.
I cant beleive these bishops could possibly be that dumb. Its impossible. They exactly knew what they were doing. These are the same kind of church officials who collaborated with the nazis… They are just sad they are getting any blowback from it.
I say excommunicate the lot of them, or at least remove their titles and park them in a monestary for a few years to farm carrots. This is a glaring signal in the sky that the American catholic church needs to be under better management and the rotten ones need to be taken out by the roots. Its not a time for half measures.
They hired a Fox News guy to run their PR. He’s no longer there, but they had him for awhile. They know what’s up.
