Why do so many evangelical Christians support former President Donald Trump despite his decades of documented ungodly behavior?

An in-depth report from The Economist shows that it has a simple explanation: They believe that God personally appointed him to rule the United States.

In fact, the report cites a survey conducted by Denison University political scientist Paul Djupe that around 30 percent of Americans believe Trump “was anointed by God to become president.”

      No no you see, he’s ignoring us on purpose. God loves us so much he just ignores all of our pain and agony! It’s all our fault too, yes us personally, because of some stupid fuck that ate an apple thousands of years ago! It all makes perfect sense! ^/s
