Why Trump Didn't Like Tuesday's National Prayer Service

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

60% : But by the next morning, when the National Cathedral held a "Service of Prayer for the Nation," as it has every four years since Franklin D. Roosevelt's inauguration in 1933, Trump wasn't so jazzed with God's representatives in Washington.
50% : The shout-out to God (whom Trump credited with saving his life from assassination "to make America great again," which is not recorded in scripture as one of the Almighty's areas of interest) got a hearty round of applause, particularly, one guesses, from the conservatives who think separation of church and state is a communist idea.
47% : The service was also very much a plea for "unity," an idea that Trump favors only when people unite behind his own less than universally beloved agenda.
46% : I didn't think it was a good service, no."It could be that the staid, Episcopal-designed ecumenical service in a Gothic cathedral wasn't the president's cup of tea, since the religious leaders he has preferred lately have largely been conservative pentecostals who love to lay hands on Trump and hail him as God's anointed smiter of abortionists, sodomites, and other demons.
44% : "Trump doesn't typically handle being lectured all that well, particularly in a religious venue, which he normally encounters only when on the campaign trail while harvesting evangelical votes or in the Oval Office while being regaled by his rigorously conservative and adoring "spiritual advisors."
26% : But it was undoubtedly the sermon from Episcopal bishop Marian Edgar Budde (another girl doing men's work, to the probable annoyance of many of Trump's conservative evangelical and Catholic backers) that Trump found especially offensive, as NBC News reported:"In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now," said Budde, who was looking directly at the president.
