Paula White, Trump's Personal Pastor, Joins the White House
Source: New York Times
Paula White, a televangelist based in Florida and personal pastor to President Trump whom he has known since 2002, has joined the Trump administration in an official capacity, according to a White House official.
Ms. White will work in the Office of Public Liaison, the official said, which is the division of the White House overseeing outreach to groups and coalitions organizing key parts of the presidents base. Her role will be to advise the administrations Faith and Opportunity Initiative, which Mr. Trump established last year by executive order and which aims to give religious groups more of a voice in government programs devoted to issues like defending religious liberty and fighting poverty.
As Mr. Trump campaigns for a second term, he cannot afford to lose support from the religious conservatives who voted for him in 2016 in significant numbers. Without their backing, his path to re-election would be significantly narrower.
He has taken repeated steps to ensure they turn out for him again by issuing executive orders, making cabinet appointments and nominating federal judges that pass muster with the religious right. On a range of issues from abortion rights to tax exemptions for churches, Mr. Trump has tried to grant Christian conservatives their policy wish lists whenever legally and politically feasible.

A prosperity gospel huckster who cons people out of their money? Seems like a good fit.

(12,587 posts)That alone should turn off EVERY Christian. Because we've ALL done something that we would like to be forgiven for. Even those who dont believe would still take back SOMETHING they've said or done in life.

(1,687 posts)Theyre clamoring to go willingly. They want to be part of his cult.
They are showing that their religion or as they claim, faith, means nothing to them beyond political power.
