Trump 2.0: evangelicals react

Evangelicals and other Christians are digesting the news that Donald Trump is heading back to the White House for a second term.

Writing on social media platform x.com, Graham Nicholls, director of evangelical umbrella organisation Affinity in the UK, wrote today: 'Praying for the USA and the world as we transition to a new duly elected returning President of one of the most powerful nations in the world. Whoever you wanted to win, there's only ever one winner and He already won.'

Danny Webster, Director of Advocacy at the Evangelical Alliance, pointed to a graph showing which issues mattered to voters for each of the two main presidential candidates. 'It feels to me as though this graph tells us a lot about the result last night - if economy and immigration mattered most to voters, then it’s clear who they thought had the answers,' he wrote.
