Former President Donald Trump’s Iowa campaign has been blessed by faith pastors as over a hundred MAGA Republicans prayed over him for his victory.
Over 150 pastors and faith leaders came together in Cedar Rapids to ‘pray’ over Trump right before he went on stage today.
The prayer group leader was heard saying: ‘The gates of hell shall not prevail against him. We are talking about this for him. Lord, I pray for protection for him; I pray for protection for his family.
‘All the weapons that have been formed against him will not succeed, and lord, they will not come to anything, and the traps that have been set against him.’

Pastor Dan McCoy, Senior Baptist Church Pastor First in Urbandale said in a press release: ‘The overwhelming support from Iowa’s faith leaders is a clear indication of President Trump’s unwavering commitment to the principles and values important to people of faith.
‘This announcement is not just a number; it’s a powerful message that faith communities trust President Trump to lead our nation forward with moral integrity and clarity.’
After being blessed by church leaders, the 2024 presidential candidate went on stage to call President Joe Biden ‘the destroyer of American democracy’.
At his Cedar Rapids event, which is now being called his ‘Save America’ rally, Trump kept attacking ‘crooked’ President Biden while persistently claiming that the 2020 election was rigged.
‘He’s been weaponizing government against his political opponents like a Third World political tyrant.
‘Biden and his radical left allies like to pose as standing up as allies of democracy. Joe Biden is not the defender of American democracy; Joe Biden is the destroyer of American democracy.’

‘I think if you had a real election and Jesus came down and God came down and said, “I’m gonna be the scorekeeper here,” I think we’d win there, I think would win in Illinois, and I think it we’d win in New York.
‘I got indicted four times because I’m questioning a crooked election,’ Trump later added per his own assessment of his alleged crimes. ‘But we’re not questioning it. We know the results, we know. And when we go through courts — if we ever even have to do it because you have presidential privilege.
‘And also, if we ever, we should never have to do that, but if we do, we want to redo the election — only from the standpoint we want that election, we want to look at it very carefully. We have so much information. There was so much corruption in that election.’

A massive crowd gathered at the bar to cheer and click selfies with the twice-impeached President.
Supporters were seen asking Trump for his autograph and clapping for him.
This October, he claimed that he will win Iowa’s Republican presidential caucuses in January, tossing aside advisers’ caution not to overstate expectations.
Trump’s belief that he will win in Iowa may not be entirely unfounded as data shows him being miles ahead against other candidates in the 2024 primary polls.
