Trump wants to dedicate America to God
Trump is calling Americans to a prayer rally on May 17 in Washington. The president wants to “rededicate America to God.”
US President Donald Trump has announced a large-scale religious event in Washington on May 17. The White House leader wants to gather citizens on the National Mall to “rededicate America to God.”
The announcement was made on February 5 during the traditional National Prayer Breakfast in the US capital. The spring event is intended to unite the nation through prayer and thanksgiving.
Donald Trump has invited Americans from all over the country to attend this huge rally. The National Mall is located between the Abraham Lincoln Memorial and the Capitol building. The president used expressions in his speech that are reminiscent of the oath of allegiance to the United States. He believes that the country needs to return to religious values.
“On May 17, 2026, we invite Americans across the country to gather on the National Mall to pray and give thanks. We will rededicate America to God,” Trump said.
Criticism of the opposition
Trump boasted about his support for religious communities. He said he had done more for religion than any other president in history. The Republican leader harshly attacked Democrats. He questioned the possibility of a person of faith voting with the opposition.
“I don’t know how anyone who believes in God can vote with the Democrats. I really need all the help I can get,” Trump said.
The president’s hopes for salvation
Trump has expressed optimism about his spiritual future. He has joked about his attendance at official prayer events. The president has admitted that he does not consider himself a perfect person. However, he now believes that he has a chance to achieve eternal salvation.
“I don’t have the courage to say no. Sometimes I want to. I really believe I should be able to do it (to get to heaven), even though I’m not a perfect candidate,” the US leader also said.
