No one is talking about praying for goyim, so that’s just a strawman fallacy. The halacha, as codified in the Shulchan Aruch, is that a Jew is forbidden to bless a goy or praise a goy in any way. The Shulchan Aruch (YD 151:14) writes: “One may not speak in their praise, even to say how beautiful or handsome or well formed they are, and definitely not to praise their actions or be enthralled with their words”.
