Critics gave Eric Trump holy hell on Tuesday over his latest wild claim about his father, President Donald Trump.
The Trump scion, while hawking his new book “Under Siege” on right-wing commentator Benny Johnson’s podcast, argued “humanity and our world” is now “much better” with his father back in the White House — and then suggested they were “saving God.”
“You know, we’re saving Christianity. We’re saving God, we’re saving the family unit. We’re saving this nation,” he claimed. “I mean, you know, DEI is out the window, Benny. You know, I mean, you no longer have Colin Kaepernick kneeling for the national anthem. You no longer have Budweiser going woke as hell, all of this is dead.”

No one “saves” God. Every Christian should know that and be repulsed by the very assertion. Yet, many professed believers have proven easy prey for such rhetoric, minds “seduced from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ” (2 Cor. 11:3). May God bring repentance and renewal. https://t.co/DUzQbYbW75
— Jennifer Erin Valent 🇺🇸🇺🇦 (@JenniferEValent) October 14, 2025It is fascinating to see how much the Trump family lacks any sort of Christian formation. They use the language of Christianity like someone stumbling with a foreign language. It's almost like they just adopted the trappings of Christianity in order to exploit it for power. https://t.co/PqY27uIEvR
— Scott Barber (@thescottbarber) October 14, 2025Eric Trump is not talking politics. Instead, he’s declaring a new moral order. Framing Trump as God-guided and destined for heaven, he claims America has been “saved” from DEI, protest, and pluralism. This is prophetic, authoritarian language. Dissent becomes evil, and their… https://t.co/P2Qhdf150T

"We're saving God" is a blasphemous statement that implies gross misunderstanding of the core tenets of the Christian faith and the nature of God. https://t.co/zN1UGY1ojQ
