Freewheeling Trump Veers Off on Tangents at Faith Office Luncheon

WASHINGTON, D.C., JUL 14 – Trump criticized Democrats as "evil" and defended his record on religious freedom at the summit attended by 60 business leaders supporting faith-based causes.

  • During the faith-based summit on July 14, 2025, Trump used expletives and charged language, calling his indictments 'bull---' and comparing himself to gangster Al Capone.
  • Trump began his remarks by presenting faith-based initiatives, as he was expected to rally support for foster care, adoption, fatherhood, poverty alleviation, substance abuse and prisoner reentry programs.
  • Trump dubbed his indictments “bull---,” following with the claim “I was under investigation more than the late, great, Alphonse Capone.”
  • The Freedom From Religion Foundation denounced the meeting’s agenda, with Co-President Annie Laurie Gaylor warning of “blurring the line between state and church.”
  • Observers argue the event signals a theocratic shift, as the Freedom From Religion Foundation views it as building a theocratic political machine with wealthy allies, and Annie Laurie Gaylor warned it would betray duty to the secular Constitution.
