President Trump’s Top 100 Victories for People of Faith

Since Donald Trump’s first electoral win as president in 2016 to the 2020 campaign and his return to the Oval Office in 2024, the 45th and 47th chief executive has enjoyed the overwhelming support of evangelical Christians.

In each of those three elections, approximately eight in ten have cast a vote for Trump, an extraordinary level of loyalty across eight years and three Novembers.

Perhaps not surprisingly, the Trump administration has prioritized pursuing issues and concerns of interest to people who appeal and trust in God. Earlier this month, the White House Faith Office released a list of the “Top 100 Victories for People of Faith.”

In the prologue to the document, we read, “President Trump has protected religious liberty and affirmed faith in America … He is the most pro-faith and pro-religious liberty president in American history.”

Whether America is a Christian nation or nation of Christians has long been the subject of debate. But at our country’s founding in 1776, few doubted Christ’s oversized influence in its formation.

“The general principles on which the fathers achieved independence were the general principles of Christianity,” wrote John Adams. “I will avow that I then believed, and now believe, that those general principles of Christianity are as eternal and immutable as the existence and attributes of God.”

Claims that President Trump has been trying to transform America into a theocracy belie reality and ignore a fundamental fact. One reason the Trump administration has had to deliver on so many promises to people of faith is that Christians, especially, have been suffering a steady and significant erosion of their religious freedoms. Whenever someone steps up to restore anything of significance, it can be incorrectly seen as heavy-handedness.

The full listing of the “top 100 victories” issued last week can be found here, but some highlights include:

• The establishment of the White House Faith Office, the founding of the Centers for Faith, the launching of the Religious Liberty Commission and the Task Force to Eradicate Anti-Christian Bias.

• The Trump administration has called for the ending of taxpayer abortion. The Hyde Amendment, which prohibits our tax dollars from going to pay for the slaughter of preborn children, is once again being enforced. The Mexico City Policy has been reinstated. And illegal immigrants are no longer eligible for paid abortions Veterans Affairs hospitals.

President Trump has declared that it’s the official position of the United States that there are two genders, and that men shouldn’t be allowed to play in girl sports. President Trump has declared that no sexually confused minor should be allowed to be sexually mutilated.

School choice and parental right have also been prioritized. The administration has expressed the conviction that parents and their children should be free to opt out of public schools and instead choose private, religious, or charter schools. President Trump has ended the COVID-19 vaccine mandates. In addition to calling for the abolishment of the Department of Education,” the administration recognizes that no secrets should be kept from parents.

The Department of Justice has expressed support for faith-based charter schools. Religious expression is now protected in the workplace. Military chaplains will no longer be censored. The Department of Health and Human Services has vowed to protect healthcare worker’s conscience rights.

A Task Force to Combat Anti-Semitism has been launched – a strong counter to the many colleges and universities who employ and tolerate individuals spewing hateful rhetoric.

President Trump has vowed to “end the weaponization of government and free speech.” This involves a series of executive orders that, in addition to championing personal freedom and liberty, call for an end censorship, and prevent financial institutions from discriminating against Christians by refusing to do business with them.

The Trump administration listed numerous “religious days of remembrance” they’ve recognized raging from Easter and Passover to the National Day of Prayer. Numerous proclamations have also been offered including the designation of Jewish American Heritage Month and the Days of Remembrance of Victims of the Holocaust.

From the very beginning, it was George Washington who stated our government gives “to bigotry no sanction, to persecution no assistance” – a strong declaration that President Trump and his team appear to fully endorse and wholeheartedly embrace.
