Trump’s Attack on Atheists Backfires

Former President Donald Trump's disparaging comments about atheists at the Faith & Freedom Coalition Policy Conference in Washington sparked a pointed response from the Secular Coalition for America. Trump referred to atheists as part of a group of "arsonists, globalists, and Marxists" in a statement that has been denounced by the Coalition, a network of non-religious organizations. Steven Emmert, the executive director of the coalition, reacted to Trump's allegations, saying, “He has used nonreligious people as a punching bag, as he has with many other groups for many years. This just seemed like an odd collection of people to go after. I mean, we are opposed to arsons as well.” Emmert further pointed out the significant size of the non-religious demographic, stating, “Nonreligious people made up nearly 30% of the population. We are not exactly some fringe group,” thereby arguing the folly of disregarding atheists and non-religious people as a potent electoral force.
