Several faith leaders spoke out against Episcopal Washington Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde’s inaugural sermon that criticized President Donald Trump’s agenda.
On Tuesday, Budde gave a politically charged sermon to Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and their families at the Washington National Cathedral. The church hosts interfaith services on the morning after Inauguration Day, a tradition meant to express unity since 1933. Budde, who is a critic of Trump, used the occasion to tell the president to show “mercy” to those “scared” he was president, as well as to extol the virtues of immigrants.
Five different Christian faith leaders, most of them vocally conservative, expressed their disapproval of Budde and support for Trump in statements to the Washington Examiner.
