In a second interview with Fox that aired Tuesday afternoon, Trump said he offered the holiday as a deadline because “Easter’s a very special day for me.”
“Wouldn’t it be great to have all the churches full?” Trump asked. “You’ll have packed churches all over our country … I think it’ll be a beautiful time.”
Reporter:
"President trump, can you tell us why Easter is so special to you."
trump:
"It means a lot to me, many people know this and many people have been saying this."
"I have tremendous respect for Easter, it means a lot to me, and to a lot of other people too."
"Easter, is well, in my opinion, is Easter."
Reporter:
"But why is it, Easter, important to you"?
trump:
"It's special because a lot of people go to church, and family you know, a lot of people support Easter and it's meaning and I have the greatest respect for our Easter, it means a lot to many people, and no one respects Easter more than I do."
Reporter:
"When is Easter, what specific day on the calendar, Mr. President. and again, why is it so special to you"
trump:
"That's a really nasty question."
Reporter:
"Try to answer the question, Mr. President."
trump:
"Easter, it's on a Sunday, in April, near Spring Break, but people, schools, you know, have different Spring Breaks, so it doesn't always fall on Easter, because, you know, the Spring Breaks are different, and when people go to church. A lot of people go to church on Sunday, it's a very special day to me and many other great people. We have great people in here, these people in this room are great people, tremendous people. I would love to see the churches packed on Easter, a Sunday, in April, where people celebrate God, on Easter, and go to church."
Reporter:
To the crew, "Can we end this now."
trump:
"No, I got more to say about Easter.
Reporter:
"I'm not sure you do Mr. President, you should stop talking now. Right Now."
trump:
"But Easter, where we celebrate God, on a Sunday......"
Reporter:
"thank you Mr. President, I hope you get at least one par when you golf on Easter."
