My thoughts on Trump's church/Bible stunt

[left-of-center2012]

News says he did it because people laughed at him for hiding in the W.H. bunker
and he wanted to show he wasn’t afraid to go outside the W.H. grounds (although just across the street).

I think he also did it because Biden had gone out and spoken with protesters.

Trump staying hidden in the W.H. while Biden goes out made Trump look bad.

1. There is a picture of Hitler in exactly the same pose.

It may be a signal to some pro fascist group.

5. Hitler photo is photoshopped

6. I wondered if that was a signal too.

Especially because it was essentially a lot of trouble to go to for a single picture. Other than the picture, the event seemed to have no actual purpose, yet so much effort was expended.

8. Ohhhhh

Yes! Good observation.

2. Yup. And Biden went to a church, knelt and prayed.

I’m pretty sure trump is physically incapable of taking a knee

3. In fact, didn't Biden visit a church?

Or do I have that wrong?

I think you nailed it. Trump wears his insecurities like a knight wears armor. And he can't see how weak he looks.

7. Except that Biden met with church and community leaders.

The priest of this church was meeting with BLM when the military police drove them from the church with tear gas and rubber bullets, so that El Claudio De Mara Lago could have his photo=op with the upside down bible.
Did it never occur to him or to his handlers that the better look would be to meet with those people and perhaps sit in one of the pews to... you know pray? I'm guessing no, because he cannot converse with ordinary people without being inappropriate and fucking it up. So they went with option one "grab them by the pussy"; force himself on the Church the way he forces himself on women.

This alone should end him, but it won't.

4. You're the man, Trumpy-boy! n/t

9. Or maybe he is just looking for the last refuge of a scoundrel - religion.

If he had also wrapped himself in the flag he could have had both religion and patriotism.

12. I think he's worried about Biden

and the pics of Biden in the church meeting with community leaders.

13. To Trump it was just a theatrical prop.

Nothing more than a MAGA cap or a long red neck tie.
