46. Most MAGAs don't know yet that he is a Hindu

For all his talk about our Judeo-Christian values guiding our political and legal system, he has never converted, and is still a follower of Hinduism.
One of my wife’s Trumpy relatives (who loves Trump but is afraid he will lose to Biden) told her she liked him until she found out he “doesn’t even believe in our god.”
I guess she thinks God left Europe and came to America on the Mayflower.
