President Donald Trump rallied evangelical supporters in Miami on Friday, 3 December, recalling the backing he received from the key voter bloc during the 2016 presidential campaign, and predicting he would “blow those numbers away in 2020.”
US President Donald Trump adressed supporters in Miami at a campaign event launching his “Evangelicals for Trump” coalition on Friday evening.
As he lambasted his Democratic opponents as “radical” leftists pursuing an “extreme, anti-religious and socialist” agenda, Trump said:
As the US President underscored the support he had enjoyed among evangelicals during 2016, he predicted he would “blow those numbers away in 2020.”
POTUS urged supporters to “get out and vote” in November, as those assembled started chanting “four more years”.
As those gathered at King Jesus Ministry in Florida church appeared to pray to God to protect the president, the event wasn’t exactly well-received by the user running the “God” account on Twitter.
While retweeting the story on the prayers, run by The Hill, the Twitter “God” denied that he was on the side of Trump and his supporters, tweeting:
The satirical tweet has since gone viral.
Donald Trump’s approval rating among evangelicals has remained strong throughout his tenure, despite some of his actions and statements drawing scrutiny among religious groups.
Trump has described the evangelicals coalition as “one of the most important grassroots movements in American history.”
The Evangelicals for Trump coalition gathering is one of several events the president’s 2020 campaign has planned in recent weeks in order to drum up support among the electorate.
