Trump Remarks Continue to Polarize Conservative Christians
posted on January 17, 2018The Associated Press’ Rachel Zoll writes, “Donald Trump’s vulgar remarks questioning why the U.S. should admit immigrants from Haiti and Africa have spotlighted the bitter divide among American evangelicals about his presidency.” While some evangelical leaders such as the Rev. Robert Jeffress continued to express support, others have reacted negatively to Trump’s recent comments. Zoll notes that American connections with Christians overseas have grown in recent years through church mission projects. “As its numbers shrink in North America and Western Europe, the Christian population is exploding in Africa, Asia and elsewhere, creating ties across borders,” she writes.
