He knows his phony baloney base is supposedly Christian, right?

There's historically bad blood between Catholics and Protestants in America. All the recent Pope stuff is designed to fan those flames.

Non Catholics lump the two together but Protestant America is taught young that Catholics are in the same group as Jews, Muslims, and everyone else they hate.

So this is all dog whistling.

Something something God uses imperfect people, I guess.

Edit: I mean that's something I've heard of MAGAts saying. Apparently they don't care because somehow they're convinced Trump is chosen by capital-G-God an will do God's will even if he's sinful as fuck.

This is what they'll tell you with a straight face.

Noah was a drunk, King David killed a man so he could have the widow, and King Solomon had thousands of slaves.

The Lord can choose to work through flawed me; we must look past their character to see the holy spirit within.

Exactly why, as a small child, I couldn't understand anyone following this bullshit. They contradict themselves and then expect you to believe.
