Former NCAA swimmer and OutKick contributor Riley Gaines spoke in favor of Christianity during her speech at a Trump rally in Georgia Wednesday.
Toward the end of her speech, the 24-year-old advocate for women’s athletics told the southern crowd, “We need common sense. We need sanity. We need stability. We need strength. We need to fight. And we all need Jesus and his grace.”
Her closing remarks were met with a roaring applause.
Gaines’ nod to Christians in the crowd came just days after Vice President Kamala Harris had a contentious exchange with Christian protesters at a rally in Wisconsin Oct. 18.
At a rally on the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse’s campus, where she spoke about the economy and bettering the lives of middle-class Americans, Harris pledged to the crowd, “When Congress passes a bill to restore reproductive freedom nationwide, as president of the United States, I will proudly, proudly sign it into law.”
Harris was interrupted by pro-life protesters, and the vice president flashed a grin and responded by saying, “Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally. I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.”
