According to recent reports, polls indicate that former President Donald Trump has substantial support from Christian voters. A recent study from the Pew Research Center showed that the majority of Catholics and Protestants in America back Trump.
The study polled just under 10,000 U.S. adults over the past several weeks and analyzed voting preferences among religious groups. Reportedly, 52% of Catholics plan to support Trump, while 47% plan on voting for Vice President Harris. Among Protestants, 61% support former President Trump, and just 37% support Harris.
However, Harris dominates the polling among other religious demographics. The vice president has 65% of the Jewish vote, 68% of the religiously unaffiliated, 85% of atheists, 78% of agnostics, and 59% of other voters who identify as “nothing in particular.”
Trump has campaigned hard with Christian voters, vowing to represent their interests if reelected. The Christian Tribune has reported extensively on the former president’s promises to Christian voters, where he has also warned about the threat the radical left poses to the faith.
“Kamala Harris and the radical left have waged war on America’s faith community since the day they took office. Her selection of Governor Tim Walz as her Vice-Presidential nominee solidifies their commitment to intensifying those efforts. Ben Carson, a man of unwavering faith, is the perfect person to work with leaders of the faith community on behalf of the campaign to promote the protection of religious freedom and prosperity in our country. Nobody was a bigger champion for the faith community than me, and I look forward to working with Ben Carson to fight back against Kamala Harris’ war on faith and making America great again in November,” Trump said in a recent press release.
The Christian Tribune has also reported on comments from the former president earlier this year, where he further warned of the ongoing attack against Christianity led by the left in modern-day culture. However, Trump promised that Christians will make a “comeback” unlike any other group if he wins in November.
“They’re against religion. They’re against your religion. In particular, you cannot vote for Democrats, and you have to get out and vote. We have to defend religious liberty, free speech, innocent life, and the heritage and tradition that built America into the greatest nation in the history of the world. But now we are, as you know, a declining nation. And I might add, we are a seriously declining nation, seriously, seriously and so said, I know that each of you is protecting those values every day.”
“I hope we’ll be defending them side by side for your next four years. These are going to be your years, because you’re going to make a comeback like just about no other group. I know what’s happening. I know where you’re coming from and where you’re going, and I’ll be with you side by side. So again, thank you once again for everything you do. And you have to get out and vote. Our religious leaders have to get their incredible people that love them so much and respect them so much. Have to get them out to vote,” the former president emphasized.
