Former President Donald Trump Vows to Defend Christian Values at National Religious Broadcasters Convention

Former President Donald Trump made a bold promise to defend Christian values and protect the faith’s central iconography during a speech at the National Religious Broadcasters International Christian Media Convention in Nashville. Trump warned attendees that the left is attempting to “tear down crosses” and replace them with social justice flags, but assured them that under his administration, the cross of Christ would remain untouched.

Trump’s comments reflect his embrace of Christian nationalism, a belief held by conservative evangelicals who view the U.S. as a Christian nation. The former president, who is favored in the Republican primary, received a warm reception at the convention, where he touted his record on abortion and religious freedom.

Despite facing criticism for his personal history, including recent legal troubles, Trump’s support among religious leaders remains strong. Many see him as a politician who understands and connects with their values, making him a popular figure among the “Make America Great Again” base.

As the 2024 election approaches, Trump’s speech energized supporters and highlighted the enthusiasm for his campaign. With Tennessee’s primary approaching on Super Tuesday, Trump could be on the path to securing the Republican nomination once again.
