Why the majority of evangelicals vote for Trump.
Other Christian religions are split.
The majority of Catholics vote for Hillary Clinton.
There was a very interesting discussion with a quite of a Bible Verse I never heard before:
Contextual Overview
1Doom to you who legislate evil, who make laws that make victims-- 2Laws that make misery for the poor, that rob my destitute people of dignity, Exploiting defenseless widows, taking advantage of homeless children. 3What will you have to say on Judgment Day, when Doomsday arrives out of the blue? Who will you get to help you? What good will your money do you?
Isaiah 10:1 - MSG - Doom to you who legislate evil, who...
Isaiah 10:1 Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees,

Occupy the Bible: What Jesus Really Said (and Did) About Money and Power

Remember when Paul Ryan came out with his budget that crushed the poor and gave tax breaks to the wealthy and then insisted his budget was guided by his Catholic faith. And then the Bishops rose up and condemned his budget?
The above link goes right to that section of the book. As well as Ryan's fascination with Ayn Rand.
The bottom line is that it seems that the evangelicals that support Trump stop at abortion and applaud tax cuts for the rich. They seem to have very little interest in the poor, in health care, in fact, very little interest in what Jesus espoused.
So can you seriously support someone like Trump who scams people, who is a serial adulterer, whose says he will give huge tax cuts to the rich? No mention of helping poor people lift themselves up. No mention of helping children or families. Only some vague bring jobs back but abolish the minimum wage.
It was suggested these evangelicals yearn for a return to the 1950's.
