Trump aide mum on Dobson's assertion Trump is a 'baby Christian'

Trump is now a born-again Christian, an evangelical leader says, but a top campaign aide declined to comment on that revelation on Sunday.

"He did accept a relationship with Christ," James Dobson, the founder of Focus on the Family, said in a radio interview with on Pennsylvania pastor Michael Anthony's "Godfactor" taped Tuesday. "I know the person who led him to Christ, and that's fairly recent."

Trump does not speak publicly about his faith often, but last week he met with a group of high-profile evangelical leaders in New York.

Dobson told Anthony Trump is a "baby Christian."

"I don't know when it was,but it has not been long," Dobson said. "And I believe he really made a commitment. He's a baby Christian, if you will -- (Christians) need to be praying for him."
