My initial reaction was also "I 100% approve of this" but we shouldn't forget that he will only go after churches that are actually doing something useful, like collecting clothes and donations for the poor, as the people running those churches are generally opposed to trump. Don't think those evangelical maga-preaching megachurches, which are much more problematic, will ever be targeted by him.
