President Trump has blurred the lines between church and state by meeting with a conservative Christian coalition that opposed his predecessor's policies on religious freedom, marking a significant shift in the long-standing wall of separation. The December gathering of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's advisory board was seen as an unusual move for a government panel, but it revealed a new direction in Trump's approach to faith-based issues. This development has sparked concerns that Trump is chipping away at the traditional boundaries between church and state. It remains to be seen whether this trend will continue under his administration.
