Trump jokes Ukraine peace deal could help him get to heaven
Former US President Donald Trump jokingly stated that brokering a Ukraine peace deal could improve his chances of getting into heaven, admitting he believes his current odds are low. Trump, who has previously expressed interest in the Nobel Peace Prize for ending the Russia-Ukraine war, made the remarks on Fox & Friends. Despite past scandals and a criminal conviction, Trump has adopted a more religious tone recently, particularly after a reported assassination attempt. He enjoys strong support from the religious right and has appointed a spiritual advisor, Paula White. His press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, asserted that Trump was serious about his heaven comment.
