Rep. Cleaver Claps Back at Trump Jr.’s ‘Amen and Awoman’ Prayer Criticism

Donald Trump Jr. thinks it’s “insane” the opening prayer for the new Congress ended with an “amen” AND an “awoman” — but he’s blaming the apparent case of wokeness gone too far on Democrats, in general.

Rep. Emanuel Cleaver raised some eyebrows by ending his invocation Sunday for the 117th Congress with the gender-inclusive phrasing. Maybe the Congressman was joking — if he was smiling his face mask covered it — but the remark had DJT Jr. brushing up on his Latin.

He angrily tweeted … “amen” simply means “so be it” in Latin — though its origin is actually believed to be Hebrew — and says it isn’t a gendered word. So, he called out Cleaver for “being insane” with his prayer pun and asked his followers … “Is this what you voted for?”

Other Republicans are taking shots too, including Rep. Guy Reschenthaler and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich … who said, “House Democrat prayer ending as House Dems focus on gender security by abolishing virtually every normal gender term like “father. Mother”-the radical madness has begun.”
