In case you need more context, Matthew 6:5-6:

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Edit: Please remember that the bible is very internally inconsistent, and it's obviously not factual. It's just funny that the people who claim to be christians don't know their own book.

Any time Republicans do this shit, Democrats need to be in the side preaching this verse.

This is by design. What is written is one thing, but what it “says” is whatever they want it to say.

Yeah its called "cafeteria christianity" - they pick and choose what parts to follow while ignoring the inconvenient verses that would actually require them to be decent humans.
