'Divine dreams' and 38 virgins at Trump prayer event

On Thursday, President Donald Trump participated in a 90-minute National Prayer Day event held in the White House Rose Garden, joined by various religious leaders.
The event followed Trump's increasing religious tone and his efforts to restore religion in government, amid backing from evangelical Christians for his 2024 campaign.
During the ceremony, Trump signed an executive order creating a Religious Liberty Commission and was prayed over by televangelist Paula White, who called for a spiritual reset and divine dreams for him.
Trump also referenced a meeting with Michigan imams, humorously referring to 38 virgins in Heaven, riffing on Islamic teachings about martyrs receiving 72 virgins.
The event highlighted Trump's blending of politics and faith, signaling efforts to elevate religion’s role in government and his continued appeal to religious voter bases despite controversies.
