Pete Buttigieg Quotes Scripture to Shame Donald Trump for Cutting Food Stamps
Breitbart ^ | 7/25/19 | Charlie Spiering

Posted on 07/31/2019 6:47:02 PM PDT by marshmallow

Mayor Pete Buttigieg criticized Christians for supporting President Donald Trump, blasting him for cutting food stamp benefits.

Buttigieg quoted Scripture at length to criticize Trump and his supporters during a rally in Seattle on Tuesday:

When Scripture says that you are to concern yourselves with the poor, and the White House says ‘Let’s take away food stamps.’ When Scripture says, ‘I was a stranger and you welcomed me’ and the White House says ‘send them back’ and ‘build a wall.’ When the Word says, ‘You will know me by my works’ and ‘suffer the little children unto me’ and they’re putting children in cages, you have a choice if you are a person of faith and it is not the person in the White House right now.

The number of people in the food stamp program has sunk to its lowest level in ten years, according to the Department of Agriculture. The Trump administration also proposed Tuesday closing food stamp loopholes by cracking down on who fits under “categorical eligibility.”

Buttigieg frequently campaigns on the idea that he is more pious than President Trump, offering voters a better choice to have a president reflecting religious values.

Whenever this jerk spouts Bible Verses out of context, just refer him to Romans 1.

The snake tongue of abusing scripture never ceases.
Destroying the voluntary commitment one makes to faith by force is possibly one of the greatest evils there is.

Leviticus 18:22
‘Do not have sexual relations with a man as one does with a woman; that is detestable.

Who needs food stamps in a great economy?

You want more food to eat? Get a job!

And if Buttgiggy wants to “feed the poor” he can open up his own purse or go work in a soup kitchen.

Leave my wallet out of your feel good charity.

How rich!!! Did he quote Leviticus 18:22. or Romans 1:18-32, or 1 Timothy 1:8-11? Let me guess—no.

Gotta love it when a homosexual that has married another man tries to use the Bible to criticize other peoples politics!

Hey Buttgiggy

I thought we were suppose to separate church and state? Cause you side always demands it, but not in this case?

Boy, that Wall of Separation between Church and State just kind of vanishes whenever they want it to, doesn’t it?

Buttplug is a raving gay thug, he NEVER shuts up about being gay and he claims he’s a better Christian because he is gay.

He’s going down in flames, his attacks on Bible-believing Christians are constant and desperate.

What a sanctimonious little pr*ck.......

He forgets the US, under Trump, welcomes strangers more than any other country.

Liberals care only for the illegal.
