A pastor who has spent years stumping for Trump, speaking at rallies, blessing campaigns shouldn’t be lecturing the Pope about "separate roles" of church and state.

If you want to be a full‑time political operative, fine, but then stop hiding behind tax‑exempt "ministry" status while you do it.

Dear Pastor Jeffries, the Bible says thou shalt have no gods before me. What's up with that golden statue of trump?

Yeah
I suppose technically he teaches the Bible
He's kind of a guy of who not to be
For example the seven deadly sins
How many "Christians" would literally teach their children to be like Donald Trump?
