Summary

Episcopal Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde refused to apologize after delivering a sermon at the National Cathedral that criticized Trump’s anti-LGBTQ+ and immigration policies, calling for compassion and mercy for marginalized groups.

Trump responded by attacking Budde on Truth Social, labeling her a “Radical Left hard line Trump hater.”

Budde, known for prior criticism of Trump, said she stands by her message and has received both support and threats.

She emphasized the need for dignity and respect in public discourse to counter the “culture of contempt.”

    Except for brutally whipping greedy people, I don’t think any of that is radical at all.

      It isn’t, but we’re talking about Trump’s definition of radical.
