Getting through Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russia's 2016 election meddling, which he has ridiculed as a "witch hunt," required faith and God, according to President Donald Trump.
"People say, 'How do you get through that whole stuff? How do you go through those witch hunts and everything else?'" Trump asked during a National Day of Prayer service, talking about how his administration and Vice President Mike Pence get through the resistance and obstruction.
"We just do it, right? And we think about God. That's true."
The off-the-cuff comment came after quoting scripture on renewing strength and getting through hard times.
"Those that hope in the Lord will renew their strength," Trump said during his speech. "They will soar on the wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. And they will walk and not feel faint.
"And that's something that Mike [Pence] and I think about all the time. Right, Mike?"
Trump also praised his administration for bringing back "Merry Christmas" and living without "shame" of faith in God.
"People are so proud to be using that beautiful word: God," President Trump said. "And they're using the word God again. And they're not hiding from it. They're not being told to take it down. And they're not saying we can't honor God.
"In God we trust, so important."
