Political Christians rather than Christians of faith.

They support Trump who says he is so perfect that he does not need Christ or his forgiveness.

Like today's evangelical/religious right supporters, Trump is a Political Christian, not a Christian of faith.

Evangelicals/religious right are easily able to spin their beliefs for political expediency.

The Donald who does not have to ask Jesus for forgiveness.

The Donald who ridicules Holy Communion.

Trump: Drink my little wine, have my little cracker

...non-evangelical Trump supporters is that the former group probably cares a little more about the issue of abortion.

But the racism, sexism, hatred for LGBTQ persons and hatred for liberals are the ties that bind.
