The much-decorated photo-op church

This is part of St. John’s Church (previous picture), where Trump held up a Bible for a photo op after law enforcement in June tear-gassed peaceful protesters to make way for his “procession” to the church.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by Pbase are decidedly
unsharp.

I hope the artwork stays. I’m concerned about clashes happening. 45 has created a lot of chaos. This capture is an excellent representation of our times. V

I hope it will not get that far when the demonstration gets underway and that it will finally end with that unbearable person, and that these beautiful works of art will not be damaged, and especially you and your possessions will not be damaged, BV

Very much a sign of the current culture in America.

Sadly the windows are boarded up and surrounded by barriers. Nice sharp shot of it. V

Sad seeing the window boarded up like that.

Yes, it's good to decorate the plywood boarding up the windows. Hopefully soon it can come down.

Never seen streetart on a church before

How sad to see those cement barriers which are obviously needed to protect the church.

Trump who?

Nice art on the plywood boarded window guess they are boarded due to some protesters might do damage to the window not all protesters were peaceful, during these trying times looking at the concrete barriers and fencing.
You keep finding the impossible excellent work .
