I think people mostly know Trump is at his best an "imperfect vessel". Whether his obviously imperfect religiosity is sincere or a farce is unknowable to us. I know lots of worse people that go to Church on Sundays for appearances.dnc said:

Is it? Irregardless of his personal integrity or religious zeal Trump policy and judge nominations are more or less in alignment with the values they hold.dnc said:
Not sure how underrated it is but it's still quite the head scratcher.GrundleStiltzkin said:Evangelicals enthusiastically hitching to Trump is underrated political hypocrisy.
And then you look where the opposition stands...
What do they say about Biden and his racism? It's easy to tell the difference between an awkward ally and a real enemy?
I don't have a problem with the religious right voting for Trump or appreciating what Trump has done policy wise for the reasons you outline. The full fledged embrace of and defense of who he is is what is highly disappointing.
I didn't vote for him in 2016 but I'm close to voting for him in 2020. I completely understand not voting for Hillary or Biden, things I haven't done and won't do myself.
It's not about the vote and it's not just about the campaign, it's about the Trump worship for the last 5 years.
As to the minority of people who defend his character with fervor, *shrug, I mostly see it as defensive and reactionary to what the rest of the culture does to him. He’s obviously literally Hitler after all.
Also, there's that non-judgement piece that I think most modern evangelicals have had to adopt to be able to deal with operating in modern society.
Tldr YOU are the religious right so you tell me. I don't want to get bullied after all. -

I'd also add that out here on the Left coast it is the RELIGIOUS LEFT and that colors Bob's and others experiences and commentary. We very literally live with the consequences of their worship of the state everywhere and everyday. I could list the innumerable examples but does anyone in the tug that matters disagree? If the fed resembled California you and a lot of others would be up in arms no doubt.
We basically have no religious right out here to speak of. Kansas? Lol, ok.
You, @dnc, probably have a different experience and view from living more in the heart of religious right land. -
AND
Our world is by definition black and white. There are no gray areas. Either that thing is built to code and will not collapse or it isn't. If there is a problem there is a solution. There is no other option. I've been the get it done guy for decades using every motivational trick in the book to get people to do what they need to do.
I became Chuck Knox to the point that when the guys would call they wouldn't say we have a problem they said we have an opportunity for a solution
Trump speaks my language in business. -

My wife went semi cray this morning at the news that Newsom is more popular than ever for his award winning response to Covid and his destruction of the economy
"There is no way he is still popular!!!!!"
Yes, yes there is -
That’s fair. This board for me is an outlet from The News and also the overwhelming anti-Trump social media platforms. Very few people in my business life know that I will be voting for Trump. I only talk politics in real life with a few close friends from college and my brother. Being an outward Trump voter at this point midway in my professional career would be detrimental to my future options working in Portland.dnc said:

DNC's bullying tactics making more sense.dnc said:
Hi there.SFGbob said:
If you "feel" that most members of the GOP mock the Christian right you're full of crap. Fear of the Religious Right is completely irrational given their ability to impact in anyway how you live your life. Now apply that same standard to the religious left.dnc said:
Not a liberal nor a religious bigot.SFGbob said:
Most liberals feel most GOP feel that way because that's the way they feel about the evangelical right. As a non-religious Conservative I don't have any problem with the evangelical right.dnc said:Yeah this one's almost 100% true.
Most GOP feel the same way about the evangelical right.
Unlike you liberals and religious bigots I don't have an irrational fear about the Christian Right. I don't agree with them on every issue but unlike the Religious Left, the Religious Right isn't trying to force their religious beliefs onto me.

He had @HHusky leg-humping him earlier today, but to @dnc’s credit, he expanded on his thoughts and I agree with some of them as I learned more. It’s nice when someone can further explain their thoughts instead of flailing away and grunting out “gals” and “ladies” as an answer when you’re questioned.Doogles said:

Again I'm not talking card carrying GOP. I'm talking politicians in political office. The religious right are used by the GOP far more than actually valued and appreciated.
It's not unlike how the left treats African Americans.
Cause they can easily grow their numbers by reaching out to the Black and Hispanic Religious Right. Like they're doing right now. -
Most of the RRs are very nice people beholden to some dumb, inept ideas. But unlike the Far Left, they're easy to talk to, pleasant to be around, and typically respect those they disagree with, if they act in accordance with their faith.SFGbob said:
The religious left has far, far more negative impact on my life than does the Religious Right. I can't think of a single way that the RR has any impact on my life.NorthwestFresh said:

It never ceases to amaze me how much time some people spend here and they still don't fucking get it.
They have an impact on my family’s life via policy. Never give a thought to evangelicals as they don’t enter or impact my life in any meaningful way at all.
Different spiritual mentality than me for sure, completely different lifestyle, but other than voting for Trump, they don’t exist in my life so why mock them? I do see a lot of Democrats on Twitter going after Christians and mocking them. Read the Barrett sticky thread for some unhinged examples. Handmaiden Tale!!
In accordance with the Far Left's faith, one must be a screeching tranny faggot who demonizes everyone and everything they wish they were, but aren't and never will be. Chief among those qualities? Happiness. Always has and always will elude the far left.
Because the Far Left is Retarded. -
