Former Tea Party Congresswoman Michele Bachmann believes Donald Trump was “raised up” by God to be the Republican nominee, according to a Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN) interview released Tuesday night.

“I actually supported Ted Cruz. I thought he was fabulous, but I also see that at the end of the day God raised up, I believe, Donald Trump who was going to be the nominee in this election,” Bachmann told CBN’s The Brody File in an interview recorded last Friday.
