O american president Donald Trump said he will never forgive his enemies, even if it means not going to ‘heaven’ when he dies.
Donald Trump recently gave an interview to the television show “60 Minutes”, which aired on Sunday, November 8.
Among the various subjects addressed, death was also a topic when the 80-year-old Republican was questioned by journalist Ross Douthat if he believed he would go to heaven when he died.
“ I am a religious person, so in theory I go to ‘heaven’ [...]. I hope so. I don’t want to go to hell”, Trump took over.
Ross Douthat then addressed the speech of the President of the United States at the funeral ceremonies of Charles Kirk, a political activist murdered in September 2024. Donald Trump then said: “I hate my opponents and I do not want what is best for them.” A statement that went to the mismatch of the words of Charlie's widow, Erika Kirk, who conveyed a message of forgiveness.
“ All you need to do to go to heaven is feel love and forgiveness for James Comey – former FBI director – Nancy Pelosi – former mayor of the House of Representatives – anyone you have expressed hatred to over the past few years. Can you do that?” the journalist asked.
“If I did, it would not be real. The easiest answer would be: ‘Yes, of course I could’. They think they're extremely dishonest people, very bad people, bad people for our country. The answer is no. It would not be honest”, Trump considered.
Asked if he couldn't even forgive his enemies, Donald Trump reiterated: “I probably won’t. I hate some of my enemies and will always hate.”.
It should be noted that during the interview one of the topics also addressed was immigration. The President of the United States acknowledged that his policy of mass expulsions of immigrants was “too harsh.”.
“ I think it was too harsh”, he replied, when asked about his immigration policy.
Donald Trump did not, however, clarify whether he intends to change his political approach in this matter.
This apparent change of position arises two days after having promoted his adviser Stephen Miller, a radical right-wing figure who played a key role in the policy of mass expulsions of immigrants, to the strategic post of White House chief of staff.
It is recalled that the Republican Party was defeated in the mid-term elections, which took place last Tuesday by the Democratic Party.
