Trump Questions How People of Faith Could Vote for Democrats at Prayer Breakfast

Trump challenged religious voters at the National Prayer Breakfast, citing 2025 Bible sales as evidence of a religious revival under his administration.

  • On Feb. 5, 2026, President Donald Trump at the 74th National Prayer Breakfast questioned how people of faith could vote for Democrats and announced a May 17 National Mall prayer event.
  • Citing Democratic opposition to voter identification laws, Trump framed his remarks to tout returning religion to the center, referencing prayer in schools and the White House faith office.
  • Trump singled out Thomas Massie, Republican U.S. representative from Kentucky, calling him `No matter what we do, this moron, no matter what it is` for breaking with the party on Epstein files and tax bill votes.
  • Audience reaction included audible groans, and Rep. Jonathan Jackson publicly shamed Trump during a prayer at the 74th National Prayer Breakfast on Thursday.
  • Beyond today’s remarks, the speech raises constitutional church-state questions because Trump used Camp Mystic survivors as a metaphor for resilience while the Freedom 250 initiative's Mall event ties to the U.S. Constitution's Establishment Clause.
