A supporter outside of GOP candidate Donald Trump’s town hall event in Pennsylvania said that Vice President Kamala Harris will “meet her maker” if she can’t be a better Christian, saying that Trump is needed in the White House because “this is a man’s country.”

“We’re here to represent America,” the supporter, who identified himself as Andrew, told a reporter from the conservative Right Side Broadcasting Network (RSBN). “We’re here to represent the truth, Jesus Christ, and we’re here to represent what America’s all about: freedom.”

He said he believes Harris doesn’t care about freedom and that he doesn’t think “anybody that is a part of the far left or Democratic party is for the betterment of this country or this state.”

“They’re just sold out for the devil. They don’t want anything to do with God, they don’t want anything to do with humanity and the people that are the backbone of this country.”

The reporter then asked about Harris’s now-viral clapback to a group of hecklers at one of her rallies. While the vice president spoke about reproductive rights, the hecklers yelled, “Jesus is Lord,” “Lies!” and “Christ is King,” as they were escorted out of the venue.

Harris replied, “Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally.” She then added a dig at Trump’s crowd sizes, “No, I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.” The crowd erupted in cheers.

Andrew shared his thoughts on the moment: “I think she better get on her hands and her knees and start crying out to the one and true living God, ’cause if not, she’s gonna meet her maker real quick.”

The RSBN reporter then claimed Harris alienated two-thirds of the country with her comments because the United States is a majority-Christian nation. Andrew replied by calling Harris “one of the dumbest women that could ever run” before asserting that women don’t belong in positions of power.

“This is a man’s world. This is a man’s country. This country is supposed to be run like a business, and that is why Donald Trump is the one that we need at this moment… America needs to come back to its true moral values and true Christian faith.”

Religion does, in fact, play a role in Harris’s life. She is a Baptist but also was influenced by Hinduism growing up, and her husband, Doug Emhoff, is Jewish.

“I don’t know that we’ve had another president who is this religiously diverse and who has had that kind of experience,” Nathan Finn, senior fellow on religious liberty with the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, told Deseret News.

Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush, president of Interfaith Alliance, agreed.

“I don’t think we’ve ever before had a candidate who has navigated various religious spaces and celebrated those various spaces in such an intimate way as the vice president.”

“She’s coming from a background where one parent is from the Hindu tradition and one parent is Christian from the Caribbean. She chose to go to Howard, which has been associated with the Black American Christian tradition, and then married a Jewish man and helped raise his children, who are Jewish.”
