Republican candidate vows to defend US against ‘radical left’ at National Religious Broadcasters International Christian Media Convention.
Former US President Donald Trump has pledged to defend the "cross of Christ" against the "radical left" during his administration if he is re-elected.
Speaking at the National Religious Broadcasters International Christian Media Convention in Nashville on late Thursday, Trump said, "No one will be touching the Cross of Christ under the Trump Administration. I swear to you that will never happen."
Addressing a large crowd of Christian media figures, Trump stressed that he would protect Christian values upon his return to the White House.
"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. In America, the radical left is trying to do both at the same time. There's never been anything like this, it's really dangerous," he said.
He continued to say that the "radical left" in the country is trying to remove the cross symbol from the buildings in the country and "cover them up with social justice Flags."
"No one will be touching the Cross of Christ under the Trump Administration," he pledged and continued to ask for support in the upcoming presidential election slated for Nov. 5.
During his presidency in 2016-2020, Trump received strong support from Evangelical Christians, and chose Mike Pence, an evangelical, as his vice-president. -
