Republican Donald Trump, whose unconventional campaign has mostly avoided naming leadership teams to focus on various issues or slices of the electorate, is expected to announce a religious advisory board this week.

Such a board would represent his campaign’s efforts to shore up support from people of faith. Mr. Trump spoke to hundreds of religious conservatives at the Faith and Freedom Coalition conference in Washington, D.C., earlier this month.

The new group of 20 to 30 people will be among hundreds of religious leaders gathering Tuesday in New York City to meet privately with Mr. Trump. Ben Carson, one of Mr. Trump’s former rivals for the GOP nomination, is helping to organize the meeting.

Some members of the new group have shown support for Mr. Trump in the past, while others backed former opponents or remained neutral during the GOP primary.

6. A real winner there. Raised with a silver spoon from his daddy's preying on people

He and Franklin Graham are both from the same mold. Raised on how to milk money from people with religion being that means. Neither know what work is.
