The move has been condemned by multiple prominent church leaders.

Presiding Bishop Michael Curry accused Trump of using ‘a church building and the Holy Bible for partisan political purposes’.

Rev. Mariann Budde, the Episcopal bishop of Washington, said that ‘everything he has said and done is to inflame violence. We need moral leadership, and he’s done everything to divide us.’
