4. That's a pretty good analysis of it, I think.

Christian nationalism is also proving to be divisive as those who believe in it as doctrine think those in the church who don't are heretics and this further splits churches. It's really depedent on church leaders, mainly pastors, to keep this intrusion of false teachers out.

As far as the danger to democracy, that hangs by a thread in places of the constitution's own creation, namely the antiquated and outdated electoral college.

I don't think the unholy alliance between Trump and more conservative Evangelicals will hold for long. They demand more and more of a share of the power and he's given them as much as he is going to give. He thinks he's thrown enough bones their way, they have a whole agenda, much of what conflicts with his interests, and they're not going to let go.
