Evangelical support for Trump doesn’t seem very Christian | READER COMMENTARY
Given Donald Trump's immoral nature, it remains surprising that he attracts so many fundamentalist Christian voters.
I’ve heard on major news outlets that the vast majority of Christian evangelicals support former President Donald Trump (“Dan Rodricks: Digging into the roots of evangelical support for Trump,” Jan. 23).
This is very confusing to me. I was always taught that an evangelical’s beliefs were strongly grounded in right above wrong, hope for the hopeless and working to help the misbegotten. It is a conundrum to find that millions of them can support a candidate who slept with a porn star while his own wife was pregnant and then paid for her silence on the matter to keep his supporters from finding out.
Doesn’t an evangelical ask a higher power to guide them any more?
