Overview

  • In a Tuesday interview with Benny Johnson, Eric Trump said his father is "heaven-bound" and declared that "God absolutely guided this journey."
  • He asserted that the administration is "saving Christianity" and "saving God," claiming DEI has been discarded and pointing to declines in anthem kneeling and corporate "woke" marketing.
  • He linked the comments to promoting his new book, highlighting its release on Charlie Kirk’s birthday and what he described as coinciding with "peace in the Middle East."
  • A group called The Steady State, described as more than 330 former national security officials, criticized the statements as "prophetic, authoritarian language."
  • Commentators including Jon Favreau and Christian writer Jennifer Erin Valent rejected the notion that anyone can "save God," with some conservative figures also expressing disapproval.
