    Does that mean they’re turning on Trump? Because this sure isn’t a positive story about him.

      They tend to try to seem centrist. They’re savvy about it, so they’re not necessarily interested in being caught out at being a straight-up, purist, propaganda rag.

      That said, I’m not sure if they support Trump or not. Not all evangelicals do, since he’s not very Jesus-like. I’ve been trying to remind people of that myself recently, despite not personally being a very religious person.

        From what I see of the Evangelicals from the outside, their relation to Jesus seems to be fairly tenuous at best.

        The maze of US Christian sects is fairly confusing when seen from abroad.
