Eric Trump Sparks Backlash After Claiming: ‘We’re Saving God’

First son Eric Trump sparked a wave of anger this week when he told MAGA influencer Benny Johnson that his family is “saving God.”

Trump joined Johnson on Tuesday to pitch his new book titled “Under Siege: My Family’s Fight to Save Our Nation.” While making his sales pitch, Eric Trump said of his family’s time in the White House, “And look how much better humanity and our world is. You know, we’re saving Christianity. We’re saving God. We’re saving the family unit. We are saving this nation.”

“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,” he continued, adding:

And yet, what do we have? We have a return to people going to church. We have a return to people valuing their children and valuing society and believing in the white picket fence and what the American dream represents and what their American dream stands for and American exceptionalism and peace around the world and that people can coexist with one another without having to, you know, pick up arms and destroy each other for no reason whatsoever, other than incompetent and egotistical governments. It’s a beautiful time. And he will go to heaven for all of that. God absolutely guided this journey in ways that, you know, you’ll learn in “Under Siege.”

Trump’s over-the-top claims about saving God and the family unit rubbed some people the wrong way.

Author Jennifer Erin Valent reacted, “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.”

“We’re saving God” has got to be one of the most arrogant things a human being can say. https://t.co/jEleQPCwJq

Pro tip: Any person that says they are 'saving Christianity' or 'saving God' is not on God's side at all https://t.co/qd5QEhLyJj

"We're saving God."

Can you imagine a Christ follower ever saying this? The train is so far off the tracks, man. So very sad. And so infuriating. https://t.co/O5CXjRC573

We’ve moved rather quickly from “God saved Trump” to “Trump is saving God,” which I guess is the foundation of the new MAGA religion? https://t.co/Ul08RLwekn

They’re saving God? Maybe the most insane and offensive thing anyone can say https://t.co/l2uTphsXeh

"We're saving God." This is the absolute height of hubris. https://t.co/fvSd0ixZUg

this is one of the craziest things i've heard today. and these crazy things are just firing off everywhere. the second sentence especially saying "we're saving God" as if God needs saving or a hero. https://t.co/mUfJE1uDBg

“We’re saving God” is the most blasphemous thing I’ve heard someone say in my life. God saves us, not the other way around. You only say things like this when you don’t believe and think you’re bigger than faith. https://t.co/lSigo1lJ7i
