“This appears to be yet another targeted attack on Christians in the United States of America,” he wrote on Truth Social in the wake of Sunday’s carnage in Grand Blanc Township.

“THIS EPIDEMIC OF VIOLENCE IN OUR COUNTRY MUST END, IMMEDIATELY!”

At least four people died and eight other worshippers, including some children, were wounded when the crazed gunman rammed his truck into the church and opened fire with an assault rifle as services were in full swing just before 10:30 a.m.

The gunman, identified as 40-year-old Iraq War vet Thomas Sanford, then set fire to the church as hundreds of people were still inside.

Two of the dead victims were shot, while the other two were found dead inside the burnt-out church after the blaze was extinguished, officials said.

Authorities warned additional bodies could be found in the charred house of worship given multiple people are still unaccounted for.

“We do believe there were people up there that were near that fire, and they were unable to get out of the church. So we do believe that we will have additional victims once we’re able to search that,” Grand Blanc Township Police Chief William Renye said.

The gunman, meanwhile, was killed in a gun battle with responding officers.
