During an interview with Fox News host Kayleigh McEnany, she read quotes from Psaki and a historian who labeled Johnson as a Christian “fundamentalist” and a “Christian nationalist” with a “Christian supremacy” view. Johnson didn’t seem bothered by these attacks, knowing that they come with the territory of being an effective political leader. He just wished that his critics would take the time to get to know him as an individual instead of making baseless assumptions about his beliefs.
Johnson made it clear that he’s not trying to establish Christianity as the national religion. Instead, he believes in following the Bible’s teachings of love and peace towards all people. He emphasized that it’s impossible to be a hateful person if you truly believe in these commands. Johnson also slammed the comparisons made between him and the Taliban or a deranged shooter as “disgusting” and “outrageous.” He firmly stated that his faith is based on love and acceptance, and anyone who adheres to a Judeo-Christian worldview should be offended by such comparisons.
Despite these attacks, Johnson is willing to take the arrows that come with leadership. He understands that criticism is part of the job, but what really concerns him is the attack on the foundation of America and the ideals that made the country great. He believes that the country’s Judeo-Christian heritage is an integral part of its identity, and it is disheartening to see it under attack.
Johnson’s response to the liberal attacks on his Christian faith was strong and unwavering. He defended his beliefs, emphasized the importance of love and acceptance, and expressed concern for the preservation of America’s Judeo-Christian foundation.
