Summary

Evangelical Christians have fallen prey to the temptations offered by Donald Trump, similar to those faced by Jesus in the desert. Trump has offered evangelicals wealth, protection, and power, leading them away from the teachings of Jesus and closer to the path set forth by the devil. The evangelical church has submitted to Trump, moving further from the values of serving the poor, healing the sick, and loving neighbors.

    Trump is a Christian charlatan, anyone can see that.

    In the face of overwhelming evidence against the fables in their book, even a charlatan offers comfort that they’re still special, still virtuous and righteous.

    It’s a sad state of affairs for people who are willfully ignorant, terrified they might not be as special as they think.
