Is there a growing divide between the Trump administration and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?

In this episode of Inside Out, Ian, Jim, and historian Greg Prince examine a recent Religion News Service article by Jana Riess arguing that the Church is quietly distancing itself from the MAGA movement—not through public denunciations, but through its actions.

The conversation explores the Church's expanding humanitarian efforts, its relationship with the U.S. Constitution, the influence of partisan politics on Latter-day Saints, and whether Church leaders have a responsibility to speak more directly about moral issues in the public square.
