These Conservative Christians Are Opposed to Trump—and Suffering the Consequences
The Atlantic’s Emma Green reports some Christians are being pushed out of their faith-based organizations for speaking out against Donald Trump. Green writes, “America’s divided political environment has made many religious organizations sensitive about what their employees say and do.” Catholic musician Audrey Assad, the daughter of a Syrian refugee, said she has gotten pushback from Christian leaders for opposing Trump’s stances on refugees. “A lot of Christians who are in public positions are afraid, even if they oppose things like the Trump administration or things that it’s doing right now,” she said. “They’re afraid to alienate their base.”
