According to latest Pew poll, 82% of white evangelicals STILL say they intend to vote for Trump. At least all other Americans now know who wants to trash America in order to hold onto access to corrupt power. Bluntly: Evangelicals are now pro-COVID death.
White evangelicals will support Trump – again – not in spite of who he is, but because of who he is. Evangelicals also believe in bullying, a vengeful God, angry vengeful husbands, and submissive wives and daughters. Trump’s a bully’s bully and a misogynist revenge addict. He’s their man.
Trump inaugurated the complete fusion of white evangelical Christianity and fascist politics, even as white evangelical Christianity continues to decline as a share of the national population. He’s a 19th century-style con-man. They are backward, racist throwbacks. It’s a union made in the hell of un-reason, ego and (deserved) inferiority complexes they share.
If Trump loses, white evangelical Christianity has made plain what the majority of its believers pledge allegiance to, and it’s no longer to The United States of America. Make no mistake; Evangelical Trump voters have divorced America and yet if Trump loses they (like Trump) will stalk and threaten her for decades with the violent anger of an abusive ex-husband.

Love reading your FB posts.The World needs people like you-not so much that have seen the light but seen the Darkness coming.
Powerfully written Mr. Schaeffer. Thank you once again.
I never in my life thought I would see the mentality among Christians that made Jim Jones ‘s cult possible. I was wrong. These people aren’t looking for morality or godly character, they’re looking for someone to excuse them for acting out their basest behaviors, approve of their ignorance, and make them feel “superior” to everyone else.
American Christians wouldn’t know Jesus Christ if he walked up and introduced himself, and if he came preaching the same message he did 2000 yrs ago, they’d be howling for his blood and crucifying him all over again.
