Former President Donald Trump on Friday expressed support for displaying the Ten Commandments in schools after Louisiana’s Republican governor signed new legislation requiring the state’s public schools to display them in all classrooms. “I LOVE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS, PRIVATE SCHOOLS, AND MANY OTHER PLACES, FOR THAT MATTER. READ IT — HOW CAN WE, AS A NATION, GO WRONG???” Trump posted on his social media website Truth Social. Trump continued, “THIS MAY BE, IN FACT, THE FIRST MAJOR STEP IN THE REVIVAL OF RELIGION, WHICH IS DESPERATELY NEEDED, IN OUR COUNTRY. BRING BACK TTC!!! MAGA2024.” Trump has courted religious voters ahead of November’s election, and Friday’s post was made the day before he is set to speak to a gathering of Christian conservative voters in Washington, DC. The controversial new law, signed by Gov. Jeff Landry on Wednesday, mandates that a poster-size display of the Ten Commandments with “large, easily readable font” be in every classroom at schools from kindergarten through the university level that receive state funding. It makes Louisiana the first state to require such a display. Civil liberties groups have vowed to challenge the law, arguing it is unconstitutional and violates longstanding Supreme Court precedent. Opponents of the mandate point to the establishment clause of the US Constitution that says Congress can “make no law respecting an establishment of religion.”
