Trump has literally saved Christianity but Democrats need to close all Churches

Listen to this article

US President Donald Trump has claimed Democrats need to permanently close all churches in the United States. His comments came just a few days after his son Eric Trump said the president literally saved Christianity. President Trump responded on Twitter to a video on Wednesday morning. The video showed that church-goers being arrested for holding a large outdoor service without wearing face masks or abiding by social distancing measures. Point to be noted that the video was captioned by Cliff Maloney (the president of student activism organization Young Americans for Liberty). Maloney wrote, “If you would have told me in 2019 that we were just 1 year away from Americans being ARRESTED for holding outdoor church services, I would have thought you to be insane. This is one of the most heartbreaking things I’ve ever seen. Pray for America”.

President Trump responded to the video and retweeted, “DEMS WANT TO SHUT YOUR CHURCHES DOWN, PERMANENTLY. HOPE YOU SEE WHAT IS HAPPENING. VOTE NOW!” The Christian Post reported that the event took place in Moscow City, Idaho, which attracted at least 150 people. Three Christians were arrested by the local police at the event and others were issued citations for breaching coronavirus guidelines. Trump has repeatedly admired conservative Christians in speeches and interviews over the last 4 years. He attempted to position Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden as being against Christianity. President said during a rally earlier this year that his administration will never stop fighting for Americans of faith. He said at an event in Ohio in August that Biden is catholic and against God.

It is noteworthy that Eric Trump echoed his comments during a radio interview and said his father has literally saved Christianity in the US. He added, “He literally saved Christianity, there’s a war on faith in this country by the other side. I mean, the Democratic Party, the far left, has become the party of the quote-unquote atheist, they want to attack Christianity, they want to close churches, they want to, they’re totally fine keeping liquor stores open, but they want to close churches all over the country”. It is important that places of worship have been re-opened in several states across the United States. The decision wasn’t made by the president, but by local and state officials.
