Yes...
Repug45 is a lying, pandering, snake oil seller who suckered a bunch of holier than thou evangelicals
into thinking he could be saved...
Just so they could justify supporting him
In exchange for the opportunity to make their 'beliefs' the law of the land.

So, beyond the obvious importantance of publicly pointing out examples of how his words & actions continue to disappoint his supporters...

which, in the case of evangelicals, would be addressed by citing his church related activities...

There really should be no media attention given to his attendance/non-attendance of any religious services.....
