Former President Donald Trump made controversial remarks at a campaign event in North Carolina, where he argued that Vice President Kamala Harris is 'very destructive to religion.' Trump accused Harris of being harmful to Christianity, evangelicals, and the Catholic Church.
Trump referenced a recent incident where Harris was interrupted by protesters at a rally in Wisconsin while discussing abortion rights. He criticized Harris for allegedly mocking the protesters and telling them they were at the wrong rally.
During the event, Trump also targeted Catholic voters, claiming that Harris and her Democratic colleagues are a 'nightmare' for Catholics. He falsely asserted that Catholics are being persecuted under the Biden administration, despite President Joe Biden being a practicing Catholic.
Trump boasted about his own actions regarding religion, citing his decision to overturn US policy on the Israeli-occupied Golan Heights as evidence of his support for Christianity.
The comments from Trump came after Vice President Harris campaigned at churches in Georgia, emphasizing the importance of voting and sharing personal insights about her faith.
It is important to note that these statements reflect the political rhetoric surrounding religion in the current election climate and may not necessarily reflect the views of all Americans.
