Evangelical Support for Trump Proves Religion is Tribal, not Principled

[Diogenes]

White Evangelicals were Trump's biggest voting block in 2016. We might give them a pass for that. But they again supported him in 2020 despite the proof he violated virtually every commandment and everything Jesus of Nazareth preached. Even now when he is charged with multiple felonies, including violating the espionage act and been convicted of fraud, "Christians still support him."

Does this prove Christianity, or at least white evangelical Christianity in the United States, is merely a tribal passion rather than a religion that believes in the principles and teachings of Jesus?

For eight years, Donald Trump has managed to secure the support of many evangelical and conservative Christians despite behavior that often seemed at odds with teachings espoused by Christ in the Gospels.

Lying leftist liberal democrats have little respect for God, Christians, or the rule of law and they falsely accuse Trump and their political opponents of being the wicked ones. They do that because they lie, deceive, and commit crimes against the American people.

I'm not denying that Trump likely gave very little of his wealth to the poor like democrats claim. However, since democrats claim Trump likely gave very little to the poor I will also suggest that the list of rich democrat politicians who gave significant portions of their wealth to the poor is also extremely short. What that means is that those using this forum to attack Trump are hypocritical for not judging democrats by the same standard.

Again you fail to support ANY of your claims. Mere opinions are like stinky feet, everyone's got them. YOUR task is to find SUPPORT for your claims. Since you refuse to accept or follow forum guidelines:

5. Support your assertions/arguments with evidence. Do not persist in making a claim without supporting it. All unsupported claims can be challenged for supporting evidence. Opinions require no support, but they should not be considered as valid to any argument, nor will they be considered as legitimate support for any claim.

Correction: Evangelical support for Trump proves [if anything] that Evangelical support is tribal, not principled.
