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.”

    Hey, that’s an improvement! That’s down from the typical “a majority of Americans”.

      Tbh, most things that cite “a majority of americans” tend to actually be talking about a vocal minority of Americans.
