Every time you and Zeek repeat this drivel you provide evidence for the "fake news".

1. The article that Zeek provided didn't say Christians support Trump. It didn't say Catholics, or Protestants, or even Evangelicals support Trump.

What it said is that a very strange group they refer to as "White Evangelicals" that adhere to a Christian Nationalist doctrine support Trump.

I have met with many Evangelical groups and they have always been very diverse with whites always being a minority or at the very least not a majority.

If you characterize the LRC as Evangelical then that would have been the whitest Evangelicals I ever met with, yet Chinese and Asians were the majority of that group (when viewed as a worldwide organization and not locally).

But in none of these groups was the US being a Christian Nation ever some kind of doctrine that we adhered to.

What is exceedingly clear is that they did not say that Christians support Trump because Protestants and Catholics and non white Evangelicals would be the lion share of that in the US.

Rather it is white nationalists that identify as Evangelical -- i.e. White supremacists, Brown Shirts, or Nazis. But instead of saying that KKK and Nazis support Trump they want to insinuate that Evangelical Christians support him. This narrative is a confirmation of what Ohio has been preaching about HC BO being the high priest and priestess of some anti Christians political movement.
