Jentezen Franklin, the senior pastor of Free Chapel in Gainesville, Georgia, doubled down on his support for the former president in a post on X Thursday. 

"My prayers are with @RealDonaldTrump. It’s a very sad day for this nation,” he wrote, recalling that he “met with him a few months ago along with other leaders."

“We prayed, talked for over an hour and he knew this battle would become severe,” Franklin added. “I am proud to have known this man and I will continue to be a friend he can count on. I know who I can’t wait to vote for on Nov. 5! Get registered to vote time is running out.”

The post included a picture of Franklin posing with Trump and another image of religious leaders praying over the former president.
