NPR's extensive coverage of Trump voters after the '16 election came up with quite a few cases of heavily religion-oriented voters who were like "yeah, he's obviously a huge piece of shit, but I 'prayed on it' and voted for him anyway" (purely because of abortion, clearly) These voters have been vindicated as doing exactly the right thing, according to their views, now that his court appointments have lead to the loss of Roe.

"But abortion" is an incredibly common refrain from my conservative Christian family and friends who otherwise claim Trump is awful. And then of course they fell into supporting his election fraud lies. The American church is dying because it can't stop making deals with the devil on the issues of abortion and LGBT liberty, both issues that Jesus said absolutely nothing about. Meanwhile, he said a hell of a lot about helping the poor, the sick, and the foreigner. In my mind, this kind of person isn't a real follower of Christ. They're modern day pharisees. Hypocrites who Jesus would have hated.
