Do ‘Good Christians’ Have to Back Trump? Most Say No

from AURN News · host Ebony McMorris, Jamie Jackson, Clay Cane

A new survey from the Pew Research Center explores how Christians view faith and politics after the 2024 election. Most Americans said they do not believe God plays a role in U.S. elections. Just 4% said God chose President Donald Trump for his policies, while 32% said his election was part of God’s plan. Nearly half — 49% — said God does not get involved in elections, and 14% said they do not believe in God. Eighty percent of Christians said good Christians can disagree with Trump, while only 7% said supporting him is essential. The survey also found that most Americans say religion shapes how they vote very little or not at all.
