What would we find in your past if we spoke with people who knew you BC? So I guess people can't change huh? Tell me something, are you the same person you were 10, 15, 20 years ago? Of course you're not. So why do you assume Donald Trump is the same person?
Sometimes our biases against a person can cause us to believe anything negative said of the person. We need to guard against that. I'm just sayin

In my opinion, the pastor of the church was absolutely right; it would have been a corruption of
the church service to allow Mr. Trump (or any politician) to engage in partisan political attacks
from the pulpit.
She was more polite than Jesus was when he threw out the moneychangers from the temple!

No equivalence with the money changers as she as the minister invited him. She is responsible for inviting Trump.
If you invite the man who is running for POTUS and since he is a politician it is incredulous to expect him not to be political. Her motives are questionable

Exactly. Why invite him in the first place? You don't expect him to give a speech and attack his opponent? While I will NOT be voting for Ms. Clinton in this election I would NOT invite Mr, Trump into my pulpit if he came to Rhode Island to give a political speech (or relieve us from a natural disaster). If I wanted to thank him I would write him a letter, send him an e-mail or even ask for five minutes to publicly thank him at one of his own political rallies. While I am far from perfection I am still perplexed by the nonsensical stuff that some pastors do.

According to the original post, the pastor invited Mr. Trump to her church to
"discuss the water crisis in Flint", and that during his remarks, Mr. Trump
"veered into an attack on Clinton".
So, it was not the expectation of the pastor that Mr. Trump would launch into
a partisan attack on his opponent. When he did so, the pastor politely stopped
him, while allowing him to continue with the originally-planned discussion topic.

I do agree that it might have been better to not invite Mr. Trump at all,
on the grounds that no politician can be trusted to refrain from partisan
attacks during the midst of a campaign.

Sounds like it was a set-up to me - She's a huge Obama fan and presumably a Democrat...
Surely she knew he might say something critical of either the Obama administration and/or Hillary Clinton.
Why invite him to speak at your church, if you harbor hostility or have an agenda (as evidenced by her Facebook post)?
