"We now take for granted that, at a whim, Trump can unleash the tremendous power of the U.S. military on anyone – and also withhold it. This is a message that he wants to convey to his internal political enemies along with his supporters.

The language of reactionary religion is a useful tool for consolidating power. In the end, it is about replacing American democracy with a corrupt, kleptocratic, authoritarian order."

"The number of people who embrace this heresy [of Christian nationalism] in the United States hasn’t actually increased over the past decade. It is a minority position –two thirds of Americans reject it, as do most Christians. (Again, it isn’t Christian at all)."

"And Robbie [P. Jones] and I are like, Nah, it's Christian nationalism. [The media say], Don't say white Christian nationalism, because it offends two powerful groups, white people and Christians. And so we still don't have a conversation about it in the mainstream, even though we're literally at war right now, thanks in part to a white Christian nationalist cheerleader cabal that is surrounding Donald Trump."

Wajahat Ali and Sarah Posner discuss how "Christian nationalists and pro-Israel extremists are uniting to burn The world." Ali says,

"We're not allowed to say white Christian nationalism. ... Meaning [not allowed by the] corporate media. You're just not. I was told, Can you say religious nationalism? Let's just say religious nationalism. Don't say Christian."

"Religious nationalists distort both Christianity and Judaism in American public life to persuade people who feel like they are losing control that Trump is the strongman who can save them. In the face of so many uncertainties, they have presented Trump as 'God’s chosen one' to assure people that everything is going to be alright."

"But the latest polling from PRRI shows that more than half of Republicans embrace this ideology, and its influence in our public life has been supercharged by Trump’s rise to power. ...

Religious nationalism isn’t new in American public life. Our colleague Phil Gorski calls it a 'deep story' – a trope Americans have come back to again and again."

James Fallows responds to Trump's statement about Robert Mueller's death — "Good. I'm glad he's dead":

"Any head of state who can say this in public about a countryman, even about a political adversary, is a moral monster."

As Bologna explains, vertical morality prizes rules and laws that are conceived as divine commands, unquestioning obedience to such rules and laws, and straighforward absolutism, and it demonizes empathy.

It has no willingness or ability to compromise or dialogue, since it imagines itself on the side of the divine and anyone raising questions as on the side of evil.

"James Talarico’s campaign for the Senate is breaking the tiny brains of the members of America’s evangelical for-profit ministry. Talarico has made a point that a lot of the whited sepulcher belongs to a form of Christianity that has dispensed with what Jesus reportedly said and did, according to the Gospels."
