President Donald J. Trump National Religious Broadcasters Speech Excerpts (as prepared) February 22, 2024 Nashville, Tennessee It’s a true honor to be here in beautiful Nashville with the National Religious Broadcasters.

Our good friend Brenden Dilley put this together, we’ve included his post on X, as well as the full transcript, and multiple video clips of President Trump below.

Enjoy!

/// Let me begin by saying CONGRATULATIONS on 80 incredible years of spreading the good word of God.

/// And of course, a very special thanks to all the inspiring people in the audience today the broadcasters and communicators, the brave independent Christian journalists, the missionaries who go to the world’s most dangerous places, and the pastors, podcasters, producers and patriots whose ministry lifts up the spirits of tens of millions of Americans.

/// If we are going to save this country, it will be thanks to men and women like you the people who make GOD’S work YOUR work.

/// When this legendary organization was founded 8 decades ago, it was in another moment of crisis for America.

/// 1944 was the year of D-Day, the Battle of Bulge, and General Douglas MacArthur’s famous return to the Philippines. Our country was at war with an enemy that wanted to extinguish our way of life forever. But here at home, Christians knew that victory depended not only on the force of American Arms, but also on the FAITH in American Hearts.

/// Your institution was formed to give voice to the preachers, ministers, and faith leaders who fought every day to strengthen America with the good news of the Gospel, and the love of Jesus Christ.

/// Today, we are in another struggle for the survival of our nation. This time, the greatest threat is not from the outside, but from within.

/// I am here today because I know that to achieve victory in this fight, just like in the battles of the past, we still need the hand of our Lord, and the grace of Almighty God.

/// Our country is being destroyed by a Radical-Left, corrupt political class that has gone Communist, Marxist, and even Fascist.

/// From Joe Biden on down, they have thrown open our borders to an illegal alien invasion by the world’s most sadistic criminals and savage gangs, while putting peaceful pro-life citizens behind bars. They have unleashed mobs of foreign jihadists to praise Hamas in our streets, while they slander law-abiding Americans as domestic terrorists. They are weaponizing law enforcement to target parents, conservatives, and Catholics and EVANGELICALS are on that list too.

/// For all Americans, but especially for Christians, NOTHING is more important than to defeat this wicked system and to return to Fair, Equal, and Impartial Justice under the Constitutional Rule of Law.

/// There is much work to be done but there is no doubt where we have to begin. The restoration of Law and Justice in America begins with FIRING Crooked Joe Biden on November 5th, 2024.

/// As you know, the Left is trying to SHAME Christians, to silence you, demoralize you, and keep you out of politics. But Christians cannot afford to sit on the sidelines in this fight. The corrupt persecution by this regime will NOT stop with me their chains are already tightening around you.

/// Ultimately, the Radical Left is coming after all of us, because they know that our allegiance is not to THEM our allegiance is to OUR COUNTRY and to OUR CREATOR.

/// What they cannot stand is that in the end, we do not answer to Bureaucrats in Washington we answer to God in Heaven.

/// So today, I come before you as a friend, an ally, and a fellow believer to ask for your help, your support, and your prayers for this country.

/// Just think of what, with God’s help, we already achieved in our historic first term.

/// We did more to uphold religious freedom than any administration in history. We fearlessly protected the conscience rights of doctors, nurses, teachers, and faith groups like the Little Sisters of the Poor.

/// We blocked the IRS from using the Johnson Amendment to interfere with pastors’ freedom of speech Joe Biden has taken it away, but I will give it BACK.

///I issued guidance making clear that the right to freedom of worship does NOT end at the door to a public school and I supported SCHOOL PRAYER.

/// I was the first and only president to convene a meeting at the United Nations to END religious persecution worldwide.

/// I signed an Executive Order to install Faith Advisors in every Federal Department and Agency so that your voice and the Christian Worldview would be heard in the halls of power in Washington.

/// In 4 years, we totally transformed the federal bench, appointing nearly 300 judges to interpret the law and the Constitution AS WRITTEN.

/// I withstood vicious attacks to pick and confirm three great Supreme Court Justices: Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett.

/// From my first day in office, I took historic action to protect the unborn. I reinstated and expanded the Mexico City Policy and was the first president ever to attend the March for Life Rally in Washington DC.  

///  What a difference a president makes. As I mentioned earlier, under Crooked Joe, pro-lifers are now being hunted by the Biden regime as enemies of the state. The same Biden DOJ that dropped charges against Antifa has rounded up six pro-life activists right here in Tennessee, arresting them for a peaceful protest outside a clinic where they prayed, sang hymns, and were removed with force. Last month, those protestors were convicted on outrageous charges, and are now facing up to 11 YEARS in prison.

/// Let’s call these brave Americans what they are: PERSECUTED CHRISTIANS. And let’s call their imprisonment by Joe Biden exactly what it is: EVIL and a threat to democracy.

/// To reverse these monstrous abuses of power, the moment I win the election, I will appoint a special task force to rapidly review the cases of EVERY political prisoner who has been unjustly victimized by the Biden regime.

/// Never again will the federal government be used to target religious believers. Americans of faith are not a THREAT to our country Americans of faith are the SOUL of our country.

/// Remember, every Communist regime throughout history has tried to stamp out the churches, just like every Fascist regime has tried to co-opt them and control them and in America, the Radical Left is trying to do BOTH. They want to tear down Crosses where they can, and cover them up with Social Justice Flags where they can’t.

/// But NO ONE will be touching the Cross of Christ under the Trump administration. /// When I return to the White House, I will once again aggressively defend RELIGIOUS LIBERTY in all its forms.

/// We will protect Christians in our schools, in our military, in our government, and on our AIRWAVES and we will protect God in our public square.

/// I will never allow the big media or left-wing pressure groups to silence you, censor you, discriminate against you, or tell you what have to say. There is enough filth on our airwaves American families need a haven where OUR children can be taught OUR values, not have radical values forced upon them.

/// Our children hear enough about Pro-NOUNS I will protect the content that is PRO-GOD.

/// To that end, at the request of the N.R.B., I will do my part to protect A.M. Radio in our cars. Millions of Americans value listening to Christian broadcasters while they are on the road, and we need to support those believers, not abandon them, which the Biden administration wants to do.

/// Upon taking office, I will create a new Federal Task Force on Fighting Anti-Christian Bias. Its mission will be to investigate ALL forms of illegal discrimination, harassment, and persecution against Christians in America. ///

I will stand proudly with our friend and ally, the state of Israel. In our first term, I kept my promise, recognized Israel’s eternal capital, and opened the American Embassy in Jerusalem. I also recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights. I withdrew from the disastrous Iran Nuclear Deal. And with the historic Abraham Accords, we created peace in the Middle East.

/// Just like the attack on Ukraine, the attack on Israel would NEVER have happened if I was president. Iran was weak, broke, and ready to make a deal. I also cut off funding for the United Nations organizations that were funneling billions of taxpayer dollars to Hamas yet Joe Biden gave it back, close to $1 billion dollars.

/// As the Bible says, “Blessed are the peacemakers.” I will be your Peacemaker. And I will prevent World War Three.

/// I will stop the disaster known as Bidenomics, and we will return to MAGANOMICS and PUTTING AMERICA FIRST. We will stop Biden’s inflation nightmare. I will cut your taxes and regulations. And we will Drill, Baby, Drill.

/// We are going to rebuild our cities into beacons of hope, safety, and beauty, better than they have ever been before. We will take over the horribly-run capital of our nation in Washington D.C.–and clean up, renovate, and rebuild our capital city so that it is no longer a nightmare of murder and crime, but rather it will become the most beautiful capital anywhere in the world.

/// Another top priority will be to take back our Education System from the Communists and freaks.

/// On Day One, I will sign a new executive order to cut federal funding for any school pushing Critical Race Theory, transgender insanity, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content on our children.

/// I will support a policy of universal School Choice, allowing parents to choose the public, private, charter, or religious school that best suits their children.

/// And I will support America’s homeschool families including allowing 529 Education Savings Accounts to be used for homeschooling expenses up to $10,000 dollars a year per child, completely TAX FREE.

/// I will close the federal Department of Education and will move everything back to the states where it belongs and where they can individualize education and do it with love of our children.

/// I will also take historic action to defeat the toxic poison of gender ideology
