As Evangelical Support for Trump Wanes, Spiritual Leaders Advise Him to Stay Focused

In 2016, Donald Trump won the presidency of the United States with overwhelming Christian evangelical support. Six years later, with Trump having announced his intention to run for the White House again in 2024, his popularity among that same group may not be so strong.

Many evangelical leaders have been critical of the way Trump has conducted himself in recent months, including hosting Kanye West and known white supremacist Nick Fuentes for dinner at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida and his staunch criticism of popular Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.

Robert Jeffress, Senior Pastor of First Baptist Church in Dallas, was among Trump's most staunch supporters in 2016. He recently told Newsweek that he would hold back his endorsement of Trump until he wins the GOP nomination.
