On National Prayer Day, Donald Trump signed an executive order establishing a presidential commission on religious liberty, intriguing observers by challenging the principle of separation between church and state. During the related White House event, Trump asserted the presence of his faith advisors, claiming that such an arrangement has never been allowed before. He questioned the value of separation, emphasizing that it was time to 'bring religion back' into the country's governance, suggesting an agenda that supports Christian nationalism as a vision for religious liberty.
They work right out of the White House. That's never been done before. No other president allowed that. They say 'separation between church and state,' I said, alright, let's forget about that for one time.
We said, separation, really, is that a good thing or a bad thing? I'm not sure, but whether there's separation or not, you guys are in the White House, where you should be.
