Pastor interrupts Trump's remarks at church: 'I invited you here to thank us for what we’ve done in Flint, not to give a political speech' | |
While Donald Trump spoke at the Bethel United Methodist Church in Flint, Michigan, he began criticizing opponent Hillary Clinton’s foreign policy - drawing the condemnation of the church’s pastor. | |
“Hillary failed on the economy, just like she’s failed on foreign policy. Everything she touched didn’t work out. Nothing. Now Hillary Clinton-” | |
The reverend Faith Green Timmons interrupted Trump’s speech at the lectern, interjecting to say: “Mr. Trump, I invited you here to thank us for what we’ve done in Flint, not to give a political speech.” | |
“Oh, okay, okay,” Trump said in response. “Okay. That’s good. Then I’m gonna go back. Okay.” | |
Trump returned to his script, and Timmons quickly left the stage. | |
