So in two successive days weve seen Church Leaders come out and criticize if not outright condemn President Trump for using religious buildings or shrines for political purposes. You have the head of the Episcopal Church here in washington, condemning the president using the church as a photo op, holding up the bible, st. Johns church. And then you had the washington archbishop Wilton Gregory criticizing the president of going to the shrine of Paul John Paul ii.
