‘Faith is central to American life’: Those without faith feel excluded from Trump’s vision of America

Nick spoke with Eugene Scott from the Washington Post about President Trump’s speech to the National Prayer Breakfast and his frequent Christian Nationalist rhetoric.

After hearing Trump's speech, Nick Fish, spokesman for American Atheists, an organization that advocates for the exclusion of religion in policymaking decisions, told The Fix:

“This is something that we've been confronting with this president for more than a year now. He says that the United States is a nation of believers and that we value faith in God above all else. It's not accurate. . . . And it's deeply offensive to the people like us who are not and who do not believe in God. And it excludes this huge segment of the American people.”
