    Trump people only “identify as religious” they aren’t the terrible people that traditional attend and hate. Lol I’m sure there is a slight overlap in the Venn Diagram.

      I live in the Bible belt and can tell you: the evangelical megachurches are chock full of Christian nationalists.

      Sure, there are factions in the GOP that don’t really care about religion , but the SCOTUS wouldn’t have overturned Roe if the hardcore religious zealots didn’t work for decades to get it done.

      The protesters at abortion clinics were bussed there by the churches a lot of the time; they’re not outliers here. They are the engine that runs the party here in Texas. They have all kinds of excuses as to why Trump is doing God’s will despite being a terrible human being.

        Ironically though, megachurches are heavily frowned upon in Christian discourse spaces as basically being incredibly lukewarm
