Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump said this week that he believes the U.S. needs to get back to having more religion if things are going to get better.
The former president made the remarks during a podcast interview with Lex Fridman that aired on Tuesday when asked if he was afraid of death — a question that comes just several weeks after a would-be assassin shot Trump in the ear at a political rally in Pennsylvania.
After recounting talks with an unnamed friend of his whom he says has a “dark” mindset about the future and death, Trump said that religious people have a better outlook on such things.
“You’re supposed to go to heaven, ideally, not hell, but you’re supposed to go to heaven if you’re good,” Trump said. “I think our country’s missing a lot of religion. I think it really was a much better place with religion.”
“It was almost a guide,” he added. “To a certain extent, it was a guide. You want to be good to people. Without religion, there are no guardrails. I’d love to see us get back to religion, more religion in this country.”
