‘Brought to Jesus’: the evangelical grip on the Trump administration
In setting out the Trump administration’s Middle East policy, one of the first things Mike Pompeo made clear to his audience in Cairo is that he had come to the region as “as an evangelical Christian”.
In his speech at the American University, Pompeo said that in his state department office: “I keep a Bible open on my desk to remind me of God and his word, and the truth.”
The secretary of state’s primary message in Cairo was that the US was ready once more to embrace conservative Middle Eastern regimes, no matter how repressive, if they made common cause against Iran.
This was an interesting read. It explains the relationship between Trump and white evangelicals , Israel,Iran and the Rapture.
It explains why they dont care how he conducts himself and what crimes he commits. Its a bit scary in my opinion.
