This is because Trumps response was shocking. He involved ISIS in the conversation creating more negative controversy about him. Moreover, creating a wall rather than a bridge to outsiders displeases voters. The implication thus, Trump is not a good Christian because he wants to destroy foreign relations by creating a barrier. If Trump want to gain the voters votes, then he will have to start acting more religious and humane toward the immigration issue. Business should not be conducted one sided. All parties should be equally satisfied. In this case, not many voters are happy with Trump by going against the Pope. He needs to start making good relations with outsiders and prove the Pope wrong. Also, he should try to gain Pope’s vote. Even though the Pope himself cannot vote in the elections, his followers can. Hence, to persuade the votes, Trump must first settle his dispute with the Pope on friendly terms. Trump should not draw conclusions from insufficient

Trump acts as a religious figure where he dictates the morality of the collective. The collective has the power to impose moral expectations on the individual that explains their actions. Many people identify with the Republican party where their views are dominated by the collective in which they identify with and thus, support their collective leader. Durkheim defines religion as a system of beliefs and practices that unite a community through “collective effervescence” that forms “harmony and unison of movement[s]” (Durkheim 1915, 218). The force of collective on individuals could be uncontrollable and it dominates their bodies and perceptions that leads to “outlandish behavior” (Durkheim 1915, 218). Trump supporters lose themselves in a rally and experience a sense of euphoria by being in a collective and cheering on what they considered is sacred. Trump claims to provide his followers the sacred while protecting them from the “profane” such as the Mexicans or the Muslims. The followers believe in the faith of a “better America” and possess totems that represent their unity such as the red hat or the campaign

“What comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this is what defiles,” says Jesus (Matt. 5:18). Words matter; words from bigwigs matter big time. His pre-election hate speech, “a mere tool,” has already provoked a string of deplorable incidents that would get white supremacists to give each other a fist bump. While I am aghast, I am not surprised. Knowing who is sitting on the throne, many closet bigots will feel emboldened to intimidate or hurt anyone that might not look, act, or talk like an American. The question I have is this: “Did my fellow Christians see it coming? Do the law-abiding,

American voters are swayed heavily by their upbringing. People tend to share the same political beliefs as their parents; however, religious background gives parental influence a run for its money. In the United States, 78.3% of Americans are Christian making it the most common religious affiliation (Hackett & Grim, 2012). Christianity is rooted in truth and love— love for yourself and others. So when it comes to voting for the next president, many Christians seem to be at a crossroads, because the presidential candidates seem to lack truth, love, or even both. Both candidates use ruthless rhetoric attacking these Christian values. Hillary Clinton is portrayed as a lying murderer, while Trump is painted as a xenophobic entitled ass. Despite core Christian values differing from Donald Trump’s rhetoric, Christian voters are still choosing Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton, because Republican values mirror Christian values.
