Donald Trump is ending campaign rallies with a churchlike ritual, casting his prosecutions as persecution and framing his 2024 bid as a fight for Christianity. Here’s how Trump is infusing religion into his movement as he demands absolute devotion from Republicans.

Religiots are the worst. Combine fascism with religion. What you get is the most toxic and dangerous system of abuse possible! Todays Republicans risk peace in the world for their personal outcome. The consequence must be: maximum distance from #america! No business with fascists ...
Sick, sick people in that photo. Completely lacking critical thinking skills.

So much of MAGA is “churchlike” in that borrows heavily from the “megachurchization” of US Christianity—which, as an outsider, seems like such a facsimile of what actual worship is supposed to be. It’s all posturing and bombast without any of the levity or meaning.

Gullable people are easy targets, they lack self thinking skills and can be controlled by feeding them fears. In the end convictions lead to our downfall...

post seems like reasonable framing @palafo.bsky.social headline framing not so much "Christianity" is ambiguous thru + thru, w positive + negative connotations at the very end Russell Moore undercuts hed would @nytimes say "Modi Infusing Hinduism" as he incites? "Netanyahu Infusing Judaism"?

"infusing religiosity" would be more accurate and more in sync with the article and would properly withhold fear and favor and unearned benefit of doubt
