Seems pretty clear to me they are a huge crowd of hypocrites because they all claim to support Trump based on moral grounds (or at least every single one mentioned in any story anywhere about them) while Trumps morals are extremely low.
Your view of this is very shallow Fred.
We know from Scripture (and experience) that evangelical Christians are guilty of sin, and we know from Scripture that we must love sinners — including hypocrites and adulterers — within the body of Christ and without. Hypocrisy is not the one sin that removes humans from the category of sinners whom we are commanded to love.
Some evangelicals didn’t vote, some voted for a third-party candidate, and many chose Trump because they hoped he would do the most good or the least damage — not because they viewed him as sinless.
Perhaps this commentary will help enlighten you.
