NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Former President Donald Trump promised to use a second term in the White House to defend Christian values and even suggested he’d shield the faith’s central iconography, warning a convention of religious broadcasters on Thursday night that the left wants “to tear down crosses.”
“Remember, every communist regime throughout history has tried to stamp out the churches, just like every fascist regime has tried to co-opt them and control them. And, in America, the radical left is trying to do both,” Trump told hundreds of cheering attendees at the National Religious Broadcasters International Christian Media Convention in Nashville.
“They want to tear down crosses where they can, and cover them up with social justice flags,” Trump added. “But no one will be touching the cross of Christ under the Trump administration, I swear to you.”
Pledging protections for the symbol of Christianity recalled the former president recently telling the National Rifle Association, “No one will lay a finger on your firearms.” It also comes as leading conservatives have increasingly called on Trump to openly build his second term around Christian values, should he win.
Trump is favored in a Republican primary where the once crowded field has dwindled to just him and his former ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley. The Christian media gathering, where sponsors distributed free red and white baseball caps emblazoned with “Make America Pray Again,” was exceedingly friendly territory for the former president, whose address often felt more like a rally than a staid convention speech.
“The left is trying to shame Christians,” Trump said. “They’re trying to shame us. I’m a very proud Christian.”
Trump brought the crowd to its feet repeatedly and frequently championed his record on abortion, including appointing three conservative Supreme Court justices who helped overturn the Roe v. Wade decision. But he notably didn’t mention the Alabama Supreme Court ruling that has prompted providers there to pause in vitro fertilization after justices ruled that frozen embryos could be considered children under state law.
President Joe Biden‘s reelection campaign released a blank statement on the matter late Thursday, ironically calling attention to Trump’s lack of reaction on the “Alabama IVF ruling he is responsible for.”
Instead, Trump used his speech to boast that he had used his first term to do “more to uphold religious freedom than any administration in history.”
“The enthusiasm for this election coming up in November is far greater than it was in 2016 or 2020,” he said. “Far greater, it’s not even a contest.”
Tennessee holds its primary on Super Tuesday, March 5, when many states around the country vote and could move Trump to the cusp of claiming the Republican nomination.
Some religious leaders were initially hesitant to get behind multi-divorcee Trump when he first ran for president in 2016, but now they are among his mostly solidly loyal “Make America Great Again” base.
That’s despite a personal history that has only gotten more checkered in recent years, including Trump being indicted in New York in connection with hush money payments made to a porn actress in an attempt to suppress an extramarital affair.
“When he came onto the scene, people were skeptical,” said Troy Miller, president and CEO of the National Religious Broadcasters. “But I think, as they’ve learned more and listened to Donald Trump speak, the one thing I hear all the time from people … is that they really feel like Donald Trump understands them and that’s the biggest connection that people make is, ‘This is a guy in politics who gets us, who understands us, who doesn’t talk like he’s an elitist and talk down to us.’

It is hilarious that you even believe this. Trump who raw dogs a porn star while his wife is home with his child is a proud Christian. Trump who has been corrupt since the 70's is a proud Christian.
Are you just going to suck his cock no matter what or can you be objective and admit that he is a pretty horrible human being despite you preferring him over a Democrat in the White House? That it is just political, but you know he is just awful as a person.

You are a very stupid person Connors, if you actually believe that Trump is a saint on any level compared to anyone. Trump hasn't even read The Bible - never mind ever followed it. You are a sucker who is easily led. It's one thing to prefer Trump politically over Biden or any Democrat, since you wouldn't vote for a Democrat - no matter who it is, but it is the height of idiocy to actually believe Trump is this great man with strong morals and that Jesus himself would approve of him.

I was told the first step is to ask for forgiveness. Trump said he's never done that. Smarten up. You can't be this stupid. But to give you a chance, what has Biden done against his faith? I can give you a fucking list ten miles long what Trump has done. Let me start with, it's easier for an elephant to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to pass into heaven. Why do you think Jesus said that? TO PROTECT IDIOTS LIKE YOU FROM THEMSELVES! dumbass.

Biden is a fake catholic. He supports murdering innocent babies. Catholics dont believe in abortion. Biden is killing people everyday with his open border policies letting in murderers, and terrorists, and letting in all that fentanyl. A baby in Indiana just got killed from fentanyl the other day. Biden doesnt care. He lied about being involved in Hunter's shady business deals. Biden supports China who is trying to destroy us. Biden is a monster.
Trump's policies are of the Bible.

Instead of proving me wrong, you resort to 3rd grade name calling. Once again I am 100% correct and you're crying about it.

We live in a world that has stupid, ignorant or uneducated people. That's part of life. You are clearly one of those. Honestly I would actually prefer you weren't this dumb and didn't believe the things you do. It scares me that there are people like you walking around.

Trump is even less of a Christian than I am. It's no surprise that people who think otherwise also believe in a literal six day creation, Noah's ark and whatever else. Horseshit the lot of it, and may your made up god strike me down if I'm wrong.
*Looks around* Nope, still here.

A site administrator isnt supposed to treat their loyal members like you do. YOU'RE the one who asked me to come back and join your site. This is how conservatives are treated on this site. I was nice enough to come back. Well I dont need this kind of treatment by evil stupid liberals. I am done here. Delete my account.

There were conservative members here before and they called you out on your bullshit and the things you believed then too. I am friends with many conservatives, but they don't get their information from batshit crazy conspiracy sites and even if they vote for Trump, they understand that he is a horrible person - but it all comes down to who they think will make their life better financially. They don't actually think he is the second coming of Jesus.

A hard core liberal calling Trump a horrible person means he's doing something right.

You do realize that people here can read your past posts, right? Nomads didn't let you in either, because you are racist and homophobic. No one believes that I would simply ban someone because they are conservative. I wouldn't be talking to you now if that was the case.
