Trump is literally breaking the first amendment live right now, will anyone hold him accountable? Probably not. This is a treasonous act, is it not???!!? (No, I’m not voting Biden. No, I’m not a democrat.)

The principle that government must maintain an attitude of neutrality toward religion. Many view separation of church and state as required by the First Amendment (see also First Amendment). The First Amendment not only allows citizens the freedom to practice any religion of their choice, but also prevents the government from officially recognizing or favoring any religion.




(Please correct me if I am wrong, this isn’t a piece to bash Trump, I am just majorly shocked at what I’m seeing.)

Don't most, if not all, religions use prayer in some form? What's being favored here?

Separation of church and state protects churches from the state.

You are violating it right now.

It amazes me how clueless a lot of people are these days.

True. That sentence also makes sense if you replace Trump with Biden and church with blacks.

I was actually referring to your statement that he was violating that clause right now.

I'm well aware of what Thomas Jefferson and the other framers thought about separation of church and state. Im simply pointing out that he isn't violating that. I would not be a bit surprised if you believed he was violating it. Because you, in my eyes, are stupid.
