Dr. Ben Carson: ‘Honored to Serve as the National Faith Chairman’ for Trump

Elizabeth Weibel 6 Sep 2024

Former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Dr. Ben Carson announced that he was “honored to serve as the national faith chairman” for former President Donald Trump and his campaign.

In a post on X, Carson praised Trump for having been a “staunch supporter of the faith community” and added that he would “be again” after he is elected president in November. Carson’s statement came in response to Trump announcing that Carson would serve as the National Faith Chairman for the Trump campaign and reach out to evangelicals “to promote the protection of religious freedom.”

“I am honored to serve as the national faith chairman for the campaign and my friend, @realDonaldTrump,” Carson wrote. “It’s imperative that the faith community realizes what is at stake in this election.”

“President Trump was a staunch supporter of the faith community and he will be again as our 47th President,” Carson added.

In Trump’s press release, he explained that Vice President Kamala Harris “and the radical left” had “waged war on America’s faith community.” Trump added that Carson would “work with leaders of the faith community on behalf of the campaign to promote the protection of religious freedom” in the United States.

“Kamala Harris and the radical left have waged war on America’s faith community since the day they took office,” Trump said in a press release. “Her selection of Governor Tim Walz as her Vice-Presidential nominee solidifies their commitment to intensifying those efforts. Ben Carson, a man of unwavering faith, is the perfect person to work with leaders of the faith community on behalf of the campaign to promote the protection of religious freedom and prosperity in our country. Nobody was a bigger champion for the faith community than me, and I look forward to working with Ben Carson to fight back against Kamala Harris’ war on faith and making America great again in November.”

Carson, who previously ran for president in 2016, endorsed Trump after he exited the race.

During the 2016 presidential election, Carson defended Trump as being the “right leader for a time such as this.”

Another day, and another example of Trump winning a "news cycle"

Which btw since the end of the dnc....   Harris/Walz has won none.  If the cackler thinks she can sit on the ball the next 7 weeks, she's more than a political neophyte than I thought.
