"President Donald Trump recalled the moment one-time political foe Dr. Ben Carson told the future president, God wants you to win it, in the early days of his 2016 presidential campaign. Trump, speaking at House Religious Liberty Commission on Monday morning, fawned over Carson, before sharing a personal anecdote from the first Republican presidential debate, after which Trump claimed Carson informed him, God wants you to win it."
"Ben came up to me right after the first debate and he said, You know you are going to win, don't you? and I said, No, I don't know that. I think I'm going to win, but I don't know it. 18 people and I had never done it before. They had all done it. They were all governors and senators, talented people."
Donald Trump recounted that Dr. Ben Carson told him during the early 2016 campaign that God wanted Trump to win. Trump described Carson as a tough opponent who approached him after a debate and asserted that Trump would prevail. Trump emphasized the crowded field of 18 candidates and contrasted his lack of prior political experience with other governors and senators. Trump has told this story before, including at the National Day of Prayer, where he offered a slightly different version that also credited Carson with predicting a decisive Trump victory.
