Trump says 'Americans kneel to God, and God alone' as support for Christian nationalism grows among Republicans
Former President Donald Trump said Saturday "Americans kneel to God" alone.
His comments come as the concept of Christian nationalism grows among the far right.
GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert recently said "the church is supposed to direct the government."
Former President Donald Trump said during a speech on Saturday that "Americans kneel to God" alone, as the concept of Christian nationalism continues to gain traction among conservatives.
Trump made the comment while speaking at an event in Tampa, Florida, held by Turning Point USA, a student conservative group, and posted a of it on his Truth Social account.
"We will not break, we will not yield, we will never give in, we will never give up, we will never, ever, ever back down.
As long as we are confident and united, the tyrants we are fighting do not stand a chance," Trump said. "Because we are Americans and Americans kneel to God, and God alone."
Trump's office did not respond to Insider's request for comment, but the remark comes as Christian nationalism and some of its ideologies have spread among the GOP. Recent reports from The New York Times, The New Yorker, and CNN all suggest Christian nationalism is on the rise, particularly among the far right.
