So with an Episcopal sermon at the cathedral sparking headlines and political moves on Capitol Hill, I wondered what Danforth thought. I reached out to the longtime Republican politician and Episcopal priest to ask about the sermon by Episcopal Bishop Mariann Budde at an inauguration prayer service when she urged Trump to “have mercy” on LGBTQ children and migrant workers. And I was curious what Danforth thought about Republican responses to the sermon, such as Trump demanding an apology, a member of Congress calling for her to be deported, and other lawmakers proposing a congressional resolution to condemn her sermon as unbiblical.
