Trump and the Evangelicals

UnHerd Audio Documentaries

Twenty years ago a Democratic president’s misbehaviour towards women provoked a mixture of sadness and anger from the American Bible belt. Today? A Republican with an equally controversial record of treatment of women gets the support of 80% of white evangelical Christians. More voted for Mr Trump in last year’s presidential election than voted for Mitt Romney, John McCain or the “born-again” George W Bush in the preceding elections. In UnHerd's latest audio documentary, Katie Harrison investigates why. Featuring: David French, Amy Black, Jim Wallis, Ralph Reed, and faith advisor to President Obama, Michael Wear. unherd.com - For readers who choose the important over the new. Produced by Sean Glynn
