    Sen. James Lankford Retweeted CBS This Morning

    Most Americans might be surprised to know that many Senators pray together & respectfully work together (of course, that rarely makes the national news). My good friend @ChrisCoons & I joined @CBSThisMorning to discuss bipartisanship & our weekly Senate Prayer Breakfast.https://twitter.com/CBSThisMorning/status/961228338777018368 …

        Prayer is good, but someone in your party @SpeakerRyan not to mention any names needs to step up to the plate and speak truth to power. How far out of control do things need to get senator?

        Yes your constituents want bipartisan governance. After all, this country is based on compromise. The problem, however, is that you talk a fine game but when push comes to shove you always capitulate to party over country. ALWAYS!

        We didn’t send you there to pray, we sent you to work for Oklahoma. If you chose to pray, fine; do it on your own time. Oh, and your dig at the news is a sweet touch.

        If that is the case, then you must be schizophrenic, because the image you project is one of division and hatred - not good for the American people. Imagine parents doing the same with their children. What behaviors do you suppose their kids will mirror?

        We know, James, because you like to tell us all the time. You don't seem to understand that supporting a racist, sexually-assaulting, pedophile-endorsing narcissist makes a mockery of your brand of "Christianity".

        It’s great you pray, but the American people want you guys to do your damn job and get this president under control. For once, put your country over party. Stop with the hypocrisy!

        Always you talk the talk, but never follow through with walk the walk. If it is sincere as you say "Senators pray together & respectfully work together", & not just for show, where are the results? You never consider the hundreds of us who wish your votes to reflect our needs.

        We don't doubt you pray together. But after the prayers are over, it's who lives the prayer that matters.

        That is all fantastic and not surprising news. The surprising part is the fact that there are Republicans walking in lock step with a very non-Christian acting Trump. But let's get something done in the interest of all Americans and country over party.

        I don't think anyone is surprised by your attempts to insert your Evangelistic beliefs into our government. That's why you support Trump and are providing him cover in your committee to continue to work with Russia to attack the US.

        Maybe that’s because it has nothing to do with your job; it also seems to have little to do with the values you and your colleagues “uphold”
