President Trump Restores God To Thanksgiving Proclamation

Washington Examiner

From George Washington’s first in 1789 to President Trump’s in 2018, Thanksgiving proclamations have been declared by U.S. presidents 164 times. They’ve been proclaimed during times of want as well as times of plenty, during financial crisis as well as economic prosperity, and in times of both war, peace, malaise, and hope. Yet by 2017, this tradition was at risk of disregarding its original purpose — until reclaimed by President Trump.

Presidential Thanksgiving proclamations have always kept God at the center. A change occurred, however, with the first Thanksgiving proclamation from Barack Obama in 2009 — “God” was only mentioned once while quoting Washington. From 2010 to 2015, God received only a few passing references. Obama stressed the cultural contributions of Native Americans, typically concluding by asking Americans to be thankful, not to God, but to each other. More

  1. Our nephew had seen President Trump in PA and he showed a closeup of him during a speech, as close as he could get he said! 🙂 Nephew’s phone has a US Flag phone protector! He didn’t make a big deal as he knows many are Dimowits in our family but I can tell he’s a MAGA guy!

    A Prayer for the Nation

    Almighty God, Who has given us this good land for our heritage; We humbly beseech Thee that we may always prove ourselves a people mindful of Thy favor and glad to do Thy will. Bless our land with honorable ministry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from violence, discord, and confusion, from pride and arrogance, and from every evil way. Defend our liberties, and fashion into one united people, the multitude brought hither out of many kindreds and tongues. Endow with Thy spirit of wisdom those whom in Thy name we entrust the authority of government, that there may be justice and peace at home, and that through obedience to Thy law, we may show forth Thy praise among the nations of the earth. In time of prosperity fill our hearts with thankfulness, and in the day of trouble, suffer not our trust in Thee to fail; all of which we ask through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

    –Washington D.C., March 4, 1801

  4. God seems to love America, but his patience is wearing thin. It’s as if he gave us Trump as a final warning to get our heads out of our obamas and kick as to save our own country.

  5. The POTUS will be restoring more than just God to an historic proclamation, he will IS restoring FAITH in the country that was losing its faith in itself because of eight years of Marxism.
