Trump reads Bible from Oval Office

As part of the 'America Reads the Bible' initiative, President Trump read 2 Chronicles 7:14 from the Oval Office, a verse often cited by Christian nationalists.

The event, billed as a return to the nation's spiritual foundations, follows a period of intense religious controversy for the president, including a public clash with Pope Leo XIV. Critics have dismissed the reading as a 'political stunt' designed to shore up support among evangelical voters ahead of the midterms.

Viewers on social media noted that Trump appeared to struggle with the text and suggested he was relying heavily on a teleprompter.
