The prayer was held at the beginning of the launch of the Evangelicals For Trump Coalition , the chosen one stands with Evangelical preachers as they pray for their God to give Trump the power to destroy the world , hallelujah brothers and sisters hallelujah.
Personally I find religion and politics a dangerous mix , when God is on your side almost anything can be chalked up as the will of God ... the Crusades for example or more recently Islamic fundamentalism but either way when God gets involved bad things happen.
I don't have a problem with religion but I do have a problem with people using religion as a tool to help their objectives , scenes like the one above fill my heart with dread.

The magic won't work if you're not religious so save yourself the bother but rest assured I'm not in turmoil , it seems that ended when Boris Johnson won a majority and set us on course to leave the EU in a few weeks... time will tell.
As for Trump , I reserve the right to comment on Trump and his contradictions as a citizen of the planet and member of this site.

Is it any more or less disturbing than greenies who believe in Climate Change armageddon in a literal sense? You can find a laundry list of those failed predictions at least as long and yet you have plenty of politicians running on a "Save the Earth!" because we'll all die in 20 ... no 15 ... no 12 years platform this year.
power to destroy the world? how about power to keep the peace? how about power to defend this nation?
then you disapprove of about 99% of the states and governments in world history? religion has always been a huge part of the lives of the vast majority. unbelievers as a significant group is a new thing.
people praying for the President? how do you find that dreadful?
I'm thrilled that our President respects people of faith and accepts their prayers.
Unfortunately, the words that we applied to Mr. Clinton 20 years ago apply almost perfectly to our current president. Whether Mr. Trump should be removed from office by the Senate or by popular vote next election—that is a matter of prudential judgment. That he should be removed, we believe, is not a matter of partisan loyalties but loyalty to the Creator of the Ten Commandments.

Yes, slop up the anti Iranian propaganda.
War hawks like you are what enables the neo liberal agenda to continue. Go bring democracy to the middle east some more.

I find this and evangelicals cringe worthy, creepy and cult like! I'm not anti God either, I come from a Catholic family, went to Church, went to Catholic School, pray every day of my life, But what always got to me is how they portray themselves and how they think of themselves, but then have this ugly nastiness about them, i've seen more empathy in a pebble than I have witnessed in a lot of religious folk in my life.

Yes, keep blaming 'them' the immigrants for all your troubles. Let the hate keep filling you up.

Coming from a catholic, a church that subjugated nations, empires and murdered many in Christ’s name, big call to bang on about evangelicals
