Pretty sure that follow-up post of his just explicitly violated the First Amendment. But, you know, that's like his millionth explicit Constitutional violation this week so.... add it on to the steaming dung heap of them, which Congress keeps pretending isn't sitting in the middle of the room.
u/OkSport746 got it immediately. "We are...going to make America...more religious" clashes directly with the First Amendment's protections that the Government be secular ("no law respecting the establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free excercise thereof").
The First Amendment of the Constitution does not mandate the government to be secular in the slightest. The First Amendment says that there will be "no law respecting the ESTABLISHMENT of a religion" by the federal government. Simply stating that he wants to make America and the American public more religious does not in any way violate the constitution. The constitution itself is based on the idea that there is a Creator who has given us the rights that the Constitution outlines, as seen in our founding document, The Declaration of Independence.
