President Trump's campaign is holding an "Evangelicals for Trump" event on Thursday at a Las Vegas hotel and casino, amid a controversial ban in the state on gatherings of more than 50 people in houses of worship while places like casinos are subject to a less stringent 50 percent capacity limit.
The event is scheduled to take place at ... one of the many joint hotels and casinos in Las Vegas. It will feature Trump spiritual adviser Pastor Paula White ... and others. The full event title is "Evangelicals for Trump: Praise, Prayer and Patriotism."
"In a time when many Nevadans can’t go to church because of overreaching restrictions, President Trump’s campaign is bringing together evangelicals from across the community to pray, worship and discuss key issues facing Americans in the November election," Trump 2020 deputy national press secretary Ken Farnaso said in a statement.
