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."

I'd say the number of people who believe in sky wizards caring about touchdowns is much higher than the number of people who think the sky wizards want the Cheeto in power

lol, I don't think I fault this conclusion. Perhaps I've tried to extrapolate too much here >.<
