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?”
