It turns out that not all the evangelical leaders who have aligned themselves with Donald Trump and agreed to serve on his evangelical advisory board sold their souls in exchange for access to Trump. One of them, A.R. Bernard, the pastor of the Christian Cultural Center megachurch in Brooklyn, New York, decided after two meetings with Trump that the whole thing was a sham and quit, with Trump’s awful response to the Charlottesville events being the last straw.
Samantha Bee swallowed her misgivings about going to church and decided that it was time for her to ask Bernard what happened that caused him to leave Trump’s board when all the rest stayed put.
It must be admitted that A.R. Bernard leaves the rest of that prayer group looking pretty bad.
jrkrideau, pretty low bar, not being patently and supremely hypocritical. But yeah, hard to deny this evangelical megachurch pastor leaves the rest looking pretty bad.
