Phenomenal. Why did/do white evangelicals back Trump? Despite perhaps not living out the family values many claim to prioritize, Trump embodies a militant masculinity that the movement has embraced for decades now, and this details the history of that and how it converged with the political climate of 2016. I grew up loving purity culture books and their rhetoric, and with a mom who loves TBN, and still learned a lot here about white evangelism's history, political affiliations, and culture wars throughout the decades. Highly recommended.
