The recent condemnation of politically engaged conservative Christians as ‘Christian nationalists’ is suspected to have played a role in the dangerous attack on former President Donald Trump, as per Daily Wire reporter and author, Megan Basham. From her perspective, this ongoing vilification of believers for active participation in politics can potentially fuel violent reactions against them.

“For the past half-century,” Basham iterates, “Christians have been responsibly engaging in legislative processes, elections—even courtrooms—just like their secular left-leaning counterparts. To brand this as something menacing and violent is highly concerning.”

She looks at recent events with a wary eye: “The dangerous rhetoric surrounding Christian nationalism was published just a day before President Trump was shot. When you consider this rhetoric underneath the terrifying event that transpired on Saturday, it raises serious questions about the perilous implications of suggesting that religious sentiment influencing policy is threatening.”

Basham critiques the article published for offering no specific allegations or solid quotes but rather alluding to increased danger simply due to devout believers having an interest in participating democratically.

“It’s sheer prejudice against Christians,” she affirms.

Basham shared these insights soon after Thomas Matthew Crooks unleashed gunfire at a Trump meeting—wounding Trump himself—and fatally shooting Corey Comperatore. A local ex-fire chief aged 50, Comperatore managed to save his family by using his own body as a shield.

Basham’s authored work, “Shepherds for Sale,” explores how secular leftist bodies finance Christian churches and ministries, which then pushes them toward supporting popular societal views on racism, LGBTQ+ topics, COVID-19 scenarios among other trending issues.

She voiced surprise upon hearing racially driven statements from churches and organizations during 2019-2020 that were not in line with biblical teachings. The alarm bells began ringing louder when faith leaders started promoting mass vaccination against COVID-19 as essential for following Jesus’ teachings—a health decision made personal and portrayed symbolically.

“The left’s careful infiltration into the church fabric, funded by figures like George Soros, Bill Gates and the Clinton Foundation was taking place openly: they were intentionally creating sympathetic evangelical clusters to shift opinion on various policy choices,” she states.

She even recalled Dr. Francis Collins from National Institutes of Health—who also happens to be Anthony Fauci’s superior—being complicit in these activities. Their aim purportedly appeared to coax Christians into conforming with authoritative policies.
