Faith leaders are saying Wednesday that they pray President-elect Donald Trump “will look to God every day for His guidance and wisdom” following his victory over Kamala Harris.
In his victory speech early this morning, Trump, referencing the two assassination attempts against him in Pennsylvania and Florida, said “many people have told me that God spared my life for a reason.

Franklin Graham, a Christian evangelist and the son of the late Billy Graham, wrote on X “Congratulations to Donald Trump on being elected the 47th president of the United States of America!
