Donald Trump says that the United States is a Christian nation. What will that mean in practice, if Trump gains the power of the Presidency?
A new book on the subject avoids abstract political philosophy and theology. Instead, the pages of Donald Trump’s Army of God: Christian Nationalism in the Iowa Faith Leader Coalition are occupied with a detailed examination of the actual Christian Nationalists who propelled Donald Trump to victory in the Iowa caucuses of 2024, enabling him to seize the Republican Party presidential nomination.
What emerges is a case study in magical thinking, an obsession with demons, fantasies of sacred torture and holy wars, and a movement filled with people who believe that they are capable of delivering a new generation of Christian prophecies that carry equal weight to anything found in the Bible.
This is a story that America cannot afford to ignore.
The Iowa Faith Leader Coalition is a radical political organization that violates the law
Let’s make it our business to become aware of the radical preachers who are members of the Coalition.
