Tucker Carlson on Trump's religious beliefs
A media take claiming President Trump believes in the supernatural but not the Christian God — a striking personal read on a sitting president, neutral but attention-grabbing.
- Trump is described as definitely believing in the supernatural, but not in the Christian God.
- He is called not at all a secular person, despite that.
- The claim is that Trump deliberately did not put his hand on the Bible at his swearing-in, both times.
- The reasoning: if the Bible meant nothing to him, there would be no reason to avoid touching it — so the avoidance looks intentional.
Outlook: Expect this to fuel more debate over Trump's faith among his religious base, but no concrete consequence is signaled.
