Back in 2016, when he was running for President, Donald Trump prophetically and presciently declared:

“Christianity will have power. If I’m there, you’re going to have plenty of power, you don’t need anybody else … remember that.”

These words dripping with toxic masculinity and triumphant Christianity were music to the ears of white evangelicals.

Trump may not know the Bible from a Penthouse magazine, but he innately understands white evangelicals. He knows they’re not interested in spiritual enlightenment or world peace, but in naked power.

Evangelicals lust for political power, and what better way to achieve temporal power than by destroying our democracy and turning America into a white Christian nationalist theocracy.

They want the power to deport immigrants, strip the LGBT community of their rights and their very humanity, gain control over the bodies of women, ban controversial books and turn back America into the 1950’s when white Christian men ruled supreme, and everybody else knew their place.

The twice-impeached, thrice indicted Trump may be fascist sociopath without a spiritual bone in his body, but they worship the steaming pile of human shit because he kept his promise.  He delivered on their greatest wish by nominating Supreme Court Justices who overturned the constitutional right to have an abortion. He moved the US embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, another item on evangelicals’ infernal bucket list. Trump can be indicted, convicted and imprisoned and evangelicals will still vote for him. He’s the ruthless and amoral fighter that they’ve always dreamed of to make America Great Again, that is to say turn America into a dystopian Christian theocracy
