President Donald Trump declared that his administration is “bringing religion back to America” during remarks at the annual White House Easter Egg Roll on Monday, just hours after the Vatican announced Pope Francis’s death.
“Easter is special, and it’s one of our favorite days. It’s one of our favorite periods of time. We’re honoring Jesus Christ,” Trump, joined by first lady Melania Trump and the Easter Bunny, said from the South Portico of the White House. “We’re bringing religion back in America. We’re bringing a lot of things back, but religion is coming back to America. That’s why you see the kind of numbers that you see.”
