Did you guys see the supremely awesome WH prayer y'day?
President Trump and Dr. Ben Carson invited the press to stay after a Q&A session for a prayer. You gotta watch it to truly appreciate it. And no, I don't expect the Unusuals here to appreciate it, but normal people will.

Interesting body language, imho, on trump’s part.
Very strange photo event.

This was weird as heck.
Yeah. I already posted as much but it beats repeating and emphasizing.

Was it the belittling of the press in the room, just before the prayer?
Was it that the prayer was done mostly praising Trump, not God?
Was it that Ben Carson has forgiven Trump for questioning his religion, saying he had a pathological temper, and belittling him during the campaign?
I'm pretty sure normal people won't get it, but happy to here what you have to say.

Re: Did you guys see the supremely awesome WH prayer y'day?
It was awesome for a host of reasons:
1) Just to have Trump ask the press to stay for a prayer is awesome in and of itself. Its like showing the Crucifix to Dracula.
2) Then he tells them that they need it more than he does.
3) Then Carson's prayer was spot on - and it was to "our heavenly father" so it could apply to all major religions.
4) The parts of the prayer that praised congress for unity, and hoped that the unity would spread to the Democrats.
5) When Carson asked for guidance during this time of discord, distrust, and dishonesty, he was directing that right at the press.
It was shot at the press while performing an act that the press could not stand. I loved it!

That's pretty much what I thought. Childish antics that demean the meaning and purpose of prayer. Not surprising at all.UpstateSCHokie wrote:It was awesome for a host of reasons:

Re: Did you guys see the supremely awesome WH prayer y'day?
So... the prayer was what you would expect from a man who uses religion to further political goals. The religion that professes humility and claims in the beatitudes that the meek shall inherit the earth.
But was especially weird was trump inviting pence to praise him after the prayer. That was downright uncomfortable and bizarre.

Isn't this precisely where politics have gone wrong in this country? The opposing sides each get more pleasure out of making the other miserable than actually succeeding at anything. Dems call republicans uneducated rednecks and the left is a bunch of bleeding heart liberal snowflakes.

I wonder if Ben Carson prayed for expensive office furniture.
Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.
