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."

Like going to classical music concerts. There is this perception that it is a rich person thing. The reality is that the majority of performances will cost less than even the 2 drink minimum at a bar. About half the performances at Julliard are free and open to the public. Besides which think of the rich shits you know in life, do you know any of them who seem like they have any interest in it?
