Donald Trump said he believes in God more since surviving an assassination attempt in July.

“I think you think, like, if you believed in God, you believe in God more,” Trump said Sunday on Fox News. “And somebody said, like, ‘why?’ And I’d like to think that God thinks that I’m gonna straighten out our country. Our country is so sick and it’s so broken. Our country is just broken, and maybe that was the reason, I don’t know.”

Trump made similar comments last week when Phil McGraw, aka TV’s “Dr. Phil,” asked if he thought he was a “reason” he was spared.

“I mean, the only thing I can think is that God loves our country,” Trump said. “And he thinks we’re going to bring our country back. He wants to bring it back.”
