A Born-Again Donald Trump? Believe It, Evangelical Leader Says
In The New York Times, Trip Gabriel and Michael Luo report that conservative Christian activist James Dobson suggested that Donald Trump recently accepted Christ and is now a born-again Christian. Dobson made the claim in a June 21 interview with the Rev. Michael Anthony at a meeting between Trump and hundreds of conservative Christian leaders. Though Trump has struggled to discuss his faith, he has gained the support of Christian leaders since becoming the presumptive Republican. Gabriel and Luo write, “In his interview, Dr. Dobson conceded that Mr. Trump did not exactly fit the typical mold of an evangelical.”
