President Donald Trump was spotted Sunday taking a “bizarre tour” of Washington, D.C., including a stop at his golf course, and in lieu of attending any of the three Easter services held that morning at the church he’s “frequently” attended, The Daily Beast reported.
St. John’s Episcopal Church in Washington, D.C., often called the “Church of the Presidents,” has been attended at least once by every president since its construction in 1816. The church held three Easter services Sunday morning – none of which, the Beast reported, were attended by Trump.
“The 79-year-old president spent Easter Sunday taking a ‘ceremoniously slow’ presidential motorcade tour around Memorial Circle – close to the Arlington Memorial Bridge, where he hopes to build an arch honoring himself, according to pool reports,” the Beast’s report reads. “During his travels, he also stopped at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia.”
Trump did find time Easter Sunday, however, to issue a major threat against Iran in a profanity-laced social media post, while also lavishing praise on “Allah,” the Arabic word for God.
The president also found time Sunday to speak with multiple journalists, telling some that he was prepared to launch an unprecedented attack on Iran’s civilian infrastructure by Tuesday if the Strait of Hormuz – a critical shipping channel off the coast of Iran – remained closed to U.S.-aligned vessels.
