President Obama did not attend the funeral Mass today for Justice Antonin Scalia, and Donald Trump again made waves when he commented this way:
I wonder if President Obama would have attended the funeral of Justice Scalia if it were held in a Mosque? Very sad that he did not go!

Reaction, as you might guess, is mixed:
Here's @realDonaldTrump's tweet during the funeral. How about shutting up & respecting the memory of Justice Scalia? https://t.co/hiGZgDPInb

It is sad that our sitting president refused to attend the #Scalia funeral, but these comments are foul bigotry. https://t.co/uxHQvD7a0l

OK, I admit it.
Sometimes you just gotta love the utterly unPC @realDonaldTrump.#caring https://t.co/zGufqHzHOJ— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) February 20, 2016
Trump 2 days ago: "For a religious leader to question a person’s faith is disgraceful." https://t.co/q6JOp05FD3

@realDonaldTrump I thought it wasn’t nice to question people’s religious beliefs?
