Debate: No President Has Done More for Israel + Christians Than Trump

[godisreal]

You could argue that no modern president has done more for Christians and Israel than Donald Trump.

Consider his record on Israel. Its arguably the most supportive we have seen. He didn’t just pay lip service to the 1990s Jerusalem Embassy Act in 2018 he actually moved the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. This was a significant boost to Israels legitimacy. Then in 2019 he became the first president to officially recognize Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights breaking half a century of U.S. policy with one decision. Netanyahu has openly called him “the best friend Israel has ever had in the White House.”

Regarding religious liberty and Christians the numbers support the case. With three originalist justices on the Supreme Court (Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett) he gave us the Dobbs ruling in 2022. Pro lifers have fought for 50 years for something like that. No other recent president can claim such a judicial legacy on the sanctity of life. Early in his term he signed executive orders to protect doctors and faith groups from being forced to violate their conscience. He also expanded the Mexico City Policy to prevent our tax dollars from funding abortion abroad. In his second term (2025-26) he has been even more direct. He established the White House Faith Office and a task force to tackle anti-Christian bias. He has pardoned pro life. Since many evangelicals support a strong Israel for biblical reasons Trumps approach resonates on both fronts. 

What do you think? Do you see it differently? Lets discuss.

But the east Jerusalem is occupied by the Palestinians while the West is occupied by Israel.

Israel occupied East Jerusalem, including the Old City, during the 1967 Six-Day War. While Israel later annexed the eastern part of the city—declaring all of Jerusalem its unified capital—this annexation is not recognized by the United Nations or the broader international community.

Israel later expropriate Palestinians private properties.

The only thing Trump has done that I like since he become the president of United States the second time is the Iran war that he ended. The recent Pope even did not support the war, but you saw what Trump did (after Pope statement regarding the war) which is very unnecessary.

Thanks to DJT, Israel is now disliked by the majority of the west.   They see their PM pulling strings on the US president like a puppeteer would on his toy.    What did they do on the first day of the war - kill a bunch of school children?

Why does God need the threat of nuclear destruction to survive?

Trump has made some really big symbolic and diplomatic decisions on Israel. Recognizing Jerusalem as Israel’s capital and moving the U.S. Embassy there, recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights, and Israel’s diplomatic normalization with some Arab states through the Abraham Accords are no small feat. They make Trump a very strong supporter, especially in the eyes of pro-Israel voters or the Israeli government. His record is also important for Christians or conservative religious voters. The appointment of conservative justices like Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett to the Supreme Court made the Dobbs decision possible, overturning Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. It is seen as the biggest legal victory for the pro-life movement in decades. In addition, religious liberty, the reinstatement of the Mexico City Policy, the White House Faith Office, and the anti-Christian bias task force—all of these are important policy signals for conservative Christians.
