Former President Donald Trump expressed his intention to establish a 'Christian Visibility Day' in response to President Joe Biden's declaration of Transgender Day of Visibility, coincidentally falling on Easter Sunday this year.
During a campaign speech in Green Bay, Wisconsin, Trump questioned Biden's decision to name Easter Sunday as Transgender Visibility Day, alleging it was a disrespectful behavior towards Christians.
Trump Vows 'Christian Visibility Day' as President
The probable Republican contender for president, Donald Trump, thrilled fans with a promise during a raucous rally in Wisconsin. Donald Trump promised that November 5 will be changed into 'Christian Visibility Day' if he is successful in winning the forthcoming election.
Speaking to a fervent crowd amidst hail and freezing temperatures, Trump declared, "You know what it's going to be called? Christian visibility day, when Christians turn out in numbers that nobody has ever seen before."
Trump, who is well-known for his outspoken support among Christian conservatives, stepped up his religious rhetoric and urged the American people to "make America pray again." By promoting the purchase of a Bible for sixty dollars and presenting the support he received from pastors affiliated with the MAGA movement, he strengthened his position as a supporter of the Christian movement.
This religious level comes at a time when the religious landscape in the United States is undergoing major shifts. There is a growing trend among the general population of the United States of America to identify as unaffiliated with organized religion. This trend has spurred disputes over the role that religion plays in affecting public policies, given knowing that members of Congress are predominantly Christians.
