Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr , the influential evangelical figure who has endorsed Donald Trump for president tells The Brody File that evangelicals should focus on two key concerns when thinking about voting for Trump. “I think they have to look to what issues are critical to the future of our country. It’s security, it’s our economy,” Falwell Jr. says. He believes Trump is the guy who will fight for America. “When I’m in a foxhole, the guy I want beside me shooting, I don’t care if he’s one of us or not. If he’s a Christian, that’s great but if he’s not I want the best shot in the foxhole with me.”
Our interview with Falwell Jr. was done Saturday night in Davenport Iowa after he held a town hall event with Donald Trump.

Jerry Falwell Jr: “The best doctor if you’re sick may not be the one that shares your faith. We found that out to be true at Liberty with the years of struggles with the accountants and lawyers we brought in and the financial management. They weren’t always one of us but they were the best people for the job and when I’m in a fox hole, the guy I want beside me shooting, I don’t care if he’s one of us or not. If he’s a Christian, that’s great but if he’s not I want the best shot in the foxhole with me.”
