Quote:
"Morality is not something that white evangelicals actually demand of their candidates. What they want is for their chosen candidates to bring them power and prestige. They want their candidates, such as former President Donald Trump, to deliver policies, judges and laws that erase abortion and same sex-marriage rights. Their aim is not democracy, but theocracy.” -Source
