Cover Story: Religious freedom in the USA during the coronavirus pandemic of 2020–2021 was a topical and controversial political issue. President Trump had an unclear approach on how to deal with the pandemic. State governors wrestled with the problem of whether to close religious places of worship and came up with a variety of responses. Trump-supporting Christian nationalists regarded restrictions on their religious behavior caused by COVID-19 to be clear breaches of their religious freedom. High-profile legal cases brought against the governors of California and Illinois by the Christian legal firm, Liberty Counsel, are examined in the paper. The conclusion is that, in the USA during the Trump presidency, religious freedom issues linked to the pandemic were a political football, whose solutions were closely linked to the ideology of the decision maker.
