4 Keys that Put Trump in the White House
Charisma Media founder Stephen Strang’s exclusive interview with Donald Trump provided a rare glimpse into the convictions and heart of the former Democrat and New York real estate tycoon turned Republican firebrand. Citing guidance and wise counsel from leading Evangelical leaders including Franklin Graham and Paul White, Trump spoke candidly about serving the American people while in office, specifically American families, Christians and supporters of Israel, among others.
Here are four main edifying topical areas revealing Trump’s core principles driving his devotion to serving our country, that he discussed with Charisma.
1. Religious Liberty and Evangelical Support
“Religious liberty is the foundation—without religious liberty, you don’t have liberty,” Trump tells Charisma’s Strang, demonstrating his view that it is foundational to freedom. Trump reassures evangelicals and Catholics he will get the job done, after they felt they had been under attack by previous administrations, particularly regarding pro-life and marriage beliefs. Trump plans to repeal the Johnson Amendment, restricting churches and ministries from political engagement while maintaining tax-exempt status. He believes religious leaders should be free to express their views without fear of loss.

2. Strong Family Values and Personal Guidance
Trump spoke about his strong bond with his adult children, attributing their success to his consistent guidance, especially in avoiding drugs and similar temptations. He also touched on the importance of loyalty, noting his close relationships with spiritual leaders, Graham and White among others, who supported him from the beginning of his political journey. He values loyalty and guidance from those who have been with him through thick and thin, particularly in matters of faith.

3. Israel and Alliance with the U.S. and the West
Trump reaffirmed his strong support for Israel, noting his personal connection to Israel through his Jewish son-in-law. Setting his positions apart from the Obama administration, Trump believes in being a strong ally of Israel, which resonates with evangelical Christians who hold pro-Israel views.
4. Immigration Policies and National Security
For national policy on immigration, Trump affirms his view that immigration is a good thing for any country, when in an orderly, lawful manner, “I think that’s good, but we have to be careful,” pointing to conflict and turbulence affecting several European countries in recent years, singling out both Germany and France. Trump cites the lack of proper documentation and potential security threats posed by unvetted immigrants.
As pointed out in Strang’s recent book, Spirit-Led Living in an Upside-Down World, the world has grown more chaotic in the first years of the new century, but God’s wisdom remains timeless, trustworthy and applicable to every moment of our lives. Trump’s key points sum up his respect for religious liberty, family values, strong ties with Israel and responsibility in the role of president as he charts a vision for the future for a healthy and strong United States and a free, prosperous and free world.
