The anti-LGBTQ+ clergy who'll be praying at Donald Trump's inauguration
Briefly

Donald Trump’s inauguration seeks to unify various faith leaders, yet it prominently features clergy with contentious anti-LGBTQ+ stances, marking a divisive moment for LGBTQ+ rights.
Franklin Graham, a prominent evangelical figure, has long been a supporter of Trump's policies and has made inflammatory comments against the LGBTQ+ community, reinforcing narratives of discrimination among faith leaders.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan's participation in the inauguration highlights tensions within the Catholic Church regarding LGBTQ+ issues, as he continues to oppose movements for equality while criticizing outreach efforts.
The planned benediction from lesser-known religious figures underscores a broader trend where some faith traditions remain staunchly opposed to LGBTQ+ inclusivity, reflecting systemic challenges faced by the community.
