Ben Carson appointed national faith chairman for Trump campaign

Dr. Ben Carson has been appointed as the National Faith Chairman for Donald Trump's campaign, expressing his honor in a post on X. He emphasized the importance of the faith community's awareness regarding the stakes of the upcoming election. Carson praised Trump for his strong support of religious groups and asserted that he would continue to advocate for them if re-elected. Trump's announcement highlighted the perceived threats posed by Vice President Kamala Harris and the radical left against the faith community, framing Carson as an ideal representative to engage with religious leaders. Carson's previous experience includes serving as Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under Trump after endorsing him during the 2016 election. His role will focus on promoting religious freedom and countering what Trump describes as a war on faith initiated by the current administration. The collaboration aims to mobilize evangelical support for the campaign, reinforcing the narrative of protecting religious liberties in America.
