Donald Trump and Evangelicals are not similarly hypocritical is a short essay by Karl Jones.

Essay

Some say that Donald Trump is like the Evangelicals he courts: both are hypocritical.

I disagree. Trump is extremely different from Evangelicals.

Trump has no center, no principles, no constancy, no reliability, no trust, no allies. All bark, no dogma.

Evangelicals, by contrast, possess all those qualities — are effectively defined by those qualities. Dogma is all.

Origin

Jones wrote the essay in a post on Twitter on the morning of 22 October 2020, in response to a another post.
