    So Trump literally post a picture of himself as the Antichrist (one who stands in Christ’s place)

    THIS is the line his followers draw???

    I mean. Good to know that there is a line… but most of us drew it a long time ago

      His followers are generally stupid or uninformed and sheltered at best. He just made it really obvious to them, by doing something that would offend even the most casual evangelical.

      I genuinely believe a big factor in his election was that clip of Kamala Harris telling someone who proclaimed “Christ is King” at her rally that “you’re at the wrong rally”. A short video clip to tip a fencesitter.

      Plenty of them seem to have just memory-holed it. I check on the posts of one very random extreme right winger occasionally, and I’m guessing she didn’t like his post because she’s posted twice as much today as she usually does. But it’s all just her normal talking points: A Bible verse, Mamdani’s rent control will hurt poor people, election fraud “pass the save act” reminders, and Obama/Biden/communists open borders child trafficker conspiracies. It’s like she’s trying to drown out the the information she doesn’t want to hear.

      They’re very effectively siloed off in their social media echo chambers, this is why that 33% support number doesn’t move. In my opinion, the number of articles about “they’re finally outraged” just lulls people into a false sense of security and obscures actual developments.

      Took a look at /r/Conservative. The overwhelming stance I saw there is that it’s a terrible thing but he’s still better than any Democrat
