GOPDD: Franklin Graham: “Trump won because ‘God showed up”

Dec 21, 2016 by William Smith

Evangelist Franklin Graham told thousands in attendance at Donald Trump’s final “thank you” rally on Saturday that he believed president-elect won the election last month as a result of Christians’ prayers for America.
“I don’t have any scientific information. I don’t have a stack of emails to read to you. But I have an opinion: I believe it was God. God showed up. He answered the prayers of hundreds of thousands of people across this land who had been praying for this country,” Graham told the crowd in Mobile, Ala.
Graham has had a rocky relationship with Washington, D.C., including the Republican Party. Last December, he announced his departure from the GOP because Congress had approved an omnibus bill that funded Planned Parenthood, an organization that provides abortions.
