"Religious Leader" Does Nauseating Faux "Praying" Over Trump At Right Wing Conference
The applicable part of this video is the first 2 minutes 30 seconds. A conservative preacher named Andrew Brunson lays hands on Trump at the recent Values Voters Summit in Washington DC and prays that Trump be able to know who to trust to be protected from his enemies.

Travesty to religion, travesty to Christianity, travesty to America.
What I find most disgusting and abhorrent is the use of spirituality for political and perfidious purposes. Words are empty, it the actions that count. And the 'vaules' leaders are with Trump for a reason. $$$$$$$$ and Power. Good thing I hadn't had breakfast or I'd have puked it up.
Moneychangers in the temple.
And then...Christ Cringed!
I guess that you have to be a special type of Christain. The Christians in Syria are being killed by the Turks and their allies, but hey they are not the right ''type''...
So basically this prayer is designed to convince believers that Trump might be now given extraordinary powers from God to make the right decisions. 'Trust in Trump because he is doing the will of God.'
Yet another example of why religious belief overriding critical thinking is a terrible thing.
Well, I'll agree with one thing - Trump shouldn't be leaning on his own understanding, because his own understanding sucks.
Pathetic pandering.
But it will be the best pandering. The best ever, in all of the history of pandering.
I hope God is taking notes. When these idiots and Trump face him, there will be hell to pay.
Supernatural...?
I couldn't make it through 20 seconds of that nonsense.
The United Evangelical Federalist Society Church will tell you when it’s a sin!
One picture is worth a thousand words as they say and you totally nailed it. Good job.
Apples and Oranges. Bill had an affair as president of the US, Trump has not.
Nope, an affair is an affair regardless if one was president at that time...
Bill had one affair, trump has had 5 that we know of. Besides, does God judge based on what political office the sinner is holding?
I did not hear one word about the closing of lying mouths and shutting down of workings of deceit in high places (like the offices of Congress and the White House) in that prayer.
While I can understand that specific pastor being liberated and relieved to be so after his time imprisoned in Turkey, I want you all to take stock of Ralph Reed in the shot. Consider this was a prepared prayer, a written one, and in keeping with that, it was vetted to have no offending thing in it.
The audience was bonkers. During a solemn occasion and prayer there is normally no 'hooting and hollering' coming on.
Value voters my aunt fannie, they support a lying adulterer.
So who is running on the GOP platform? Trump and Sanford? Does the GOP have any candidates that haven't cheated on their wives?
