Why You Shouldn't Be Surprised That Right-Wing Evangelicals Support Trump
(Nick Anderson, Houston Chronicle)
One of the apparent oddities of this election cycle is the willingness of right- wing "Christian" evangelicals to support neo- fascist nitwit satyr Donald "Rump" Trump, a person with no discernible moral or ethical compass, much less adherence to Biblical values. This at the same time the Bible thumpers continue to feign outrage at the decades- old lapses of Bill Clinton. Last night on her show "Full Frontal," Samantha Bee explains in roughly 9 masterful minutes why this eagerness to line up with Rump isn't such an odd development after all, but represents a continuing marriage of nativist, racist, bigoted politics and "values voters."
