NEW YORK (Reuters) - New York Governor Andrew Cuomo on Wednesday took a swipe at U.S. President Donald Trump for a staged photo holding a Bible in front of a church near the White House, a visit made possible after protesters were cleared with rubber bullets and tear gas.
Trump did not read any passages from the Bible after walking to St. John's Episcopal Church for the photo on Monday night.
"The president held up the Bible the other day in Washington, D.C. Here in New York we actually read the Bible," Cuomo told a briefing…

Guess the meatball-brain NY governor forgot that POTUS not only grew up in NY, but was a resident of NYC while running for president.

I thought Cuomo hated Christians and did not think there was any place for Christians in "his" New York.

Guess the Cuomo's (including their father) ignore that biblical admonition regarding murder. Oh! Aborting a child in utero doesn't count???

What claptrap. If Cuomo reads the Bible, it’s for rhetorical use, not for practice.

OP- Excellent post. It is one thing to “talk the talk” and another “to walk the walk.” Leftists are quick to pass judgment on President Trump but they have no way to know what is in his heart. If leftists truly read Scripture, and do their utmost to live according to the teachings of Scripture, they need to explain why they refuse to accept what is written in Scripture, that God selects heads of nations and accept the results of the 2016 election (Haggai 2:20-23; 1 Chronicles 14:2; Daniel 2:21, 4:17; Romans 13:1-2; Revelation 1:4-5).

Who does this guy think he's kidding? Ridiculous. Surprised that a lightning bolt didn't strike him when he said that.

Satan knew the scriptures, too, and had the nerve to quote them to Jesus. What's your point, Fredo's dumber brother?

That's a tired comment, Cuomo...Best you could do? Pres. Trump gobsmacked liberals with his awesome move Tuesday. Walking on that perilous route to the church took such courage as hasn't been seen since GWB threw out the first pitch after 9/11. Pres. Trump quietly showed the world that America is back to being regarded as a Christian nation after Obama's failed attempts to change it.

Because then you can explain to God where it says you can butcher over 5K NY seniors & think you're not going down for it.

How quickly and easily these leftwing hypocrites judge the President. They must have forgotten the part where Jesus said, take the log out of your own eye before you try to take the spec out of your brother's. Pelosi ought to do a little self-reflecting, too, she with her false piety.
I may have missed something, but i have never heard President Trump attack anyone else's religious faith.
None of these lefties ever took Clinton to task for all of a sudden traipsing around with a gigantic Bible (some say it was hollowed out), after his Oval Office gross adulterous cavorting came to light.
They are hypocrites.
We are told in Scripture to pray for our leaders, so that things may go well, that we might enjoy tranquility. Alas, there's evil afoot, the left is activated like a nest of Murder Hornets, determined to tear down our Republic.

Slamming someone about their religious faith is not kosher, you would think that the Governor of New York would know that.

Oh, gee whiz. I must have been absent on the days they taught the virtue and glory of abortion during my 12 years of Catholic schooling. Andy, you suck. Enjoy Hell.

I never watch TV "news" or talk shows, having given it up in the aftermath of the 2000 elections. I do read an awful lot and have an experiential frame of reference that ranges from battlefields, oil fields, more battlefields, big city streets, and a few large federal buildings in DC and VA to a modest farm/ranch in rural TX. My sense, admittedly unpopular on this site but honestly derived and offered, is that the man I voted for in '16 and hope to see re-elected is currently on a losing trajectory and is in real danger of being turned out in November. Like Bush 41, much of it due to a combinations of his own words, actions, and inaction during a time when his best leadership traits are sorely needed but not on display. I'm not at all suggesting that he should give in to the radical left or kiss up to the commy media; in fact, any "reaching across the aisle" should be with a saber in his hand. To the contrary, I'd take up arms tonight, and follow him into combat to save our country from anarchy and communist take-over but I don't see him leading us out of our "troubles," as the Irish would say. Key members of his administration have turned out to be closet leftists, which he has tolerated to his detriment. The rift with his SECDEF and the unnecessary Bible/St. John's photo-op controversy has caused many tepid supporters to run for the exits at a time when the country, every citizen and every state, needs its president's leadership the most. If this president loses the upcoming election, I see no one willing or able to rally patriotic Americans to defeat the left.

I doubt you are telling the truth, but if you did you ignored the wisdom that it contains.

Which bible is that comrade Cuomo? The Satanic murder bible? How many babies and elderly have you recently murdered Mr. Cuomo? Do you even bother to count anyone or do you just rack up the numbers now?

Guess while you were reading, you skipped over the parts about abortion being wrong? How about all the dodgy deals you have made over the years, including when you were a cabinet secretary in the Clinton administration? There are so many other things you are so wrong about, and you actually reading a Bible is one of them Guv.

The only thing he reads is the title of the book on the cover. I'm sure he has never opened it or knows what's in it. His life and his actions give the answer.

Hey Cuomo anyone can read the Bible...but obeying is the key to getting to Heaven. How will he explain his decision to abort babies up to the time of birth?

Cuomo is SUCH a fraud! If he followed the Bible he would have actually cleaned up Albany, something he was elected to do, and amazingly stopped when he got to close. He wouldn't lie about why he filled the nursing homes with Corvid patients when the Javitt's Center was right there and set up to receive. I could go on an on. The man is SUCH A FRAUD!

Said the "Catholic" governor who signed an updated NY abortion law permitting elective abortion up to the moment of birth. Did he not read (or is he choosing to ignore) the prohibitions in the Bible against lying, pride, coveting, shedding innocent blood, fornication, sowing discord, adultery, not showing favoritism to the rich, hypocrisy, lording it over the governed, allowing crimes against the innocent to go unpunished, etc.?
And speaking of lying, tear gas was not used in Lafayette Square.
