Trump makes unannounced stop at Virginia church

[left-of-center2012]

President Trump on Sunday made a brief unannounced visit to a Virginia church following a morning at his golf club.

The White House said Trump was stopping at McLean Bible Church in Vienna, Virginia, "to visit with the Pastor and pray for the victims and community of Virginia Beach."
But the stop on Sunday lasted only a short time, and there was no explicit mention of the shooting victims.

Trump walked onstage at the church wearing khaki pants and a jacket over his polo shirt and holding a golf hat. He stood alongside Pastor David Platt, who noted that there had been calls from Christian leaders to pray for the president on Sunday.

"We don’t want to do that just on this Sunday," Platt said. "We want to do that continually, day in and day out. So I want to ask us to bow our heads together now and pray for our president."

The president did not make remarks onstage before departing.

the WH said he was going to ask for prayers for victims of the shooting. Instead, he/the complicit pastor turned it into a prayer for Trump.

13. I'm Wondering

Is that really a pastor in those tight pants, and if so, that kind of church is that? The whole thing looks like a Saturday Night Live sketch...rehearsal.

14. 'What kind of church is that?"

"McLean Bible Church is a non-denominational Christian megachurch with several locations in the Washington, DC metropolitan area."

It's all about the money.
