Why evangelicals couldn't care less about Trump's Epstein scandal (www.motherjones.com)

This is a really insightful and disturbing article.

Sobering thought: What are we supposed to do about 60 MILLION fucking people in this country who genuinely believe that Jesus is coming back any day to reign as an absolute monarch and punish the non-believers for their lack of faith and that this is a GOOD THING? No wonder democracy itself is crumbling. How are you supposed to have a functional democratic alliance with people who are praying every day for their literal god king to come reign over the earth and who eat up the bullshit of ANY and EVERY conman and grifter who feeds into that?
