I would probably agree with the general sentiment, but the bigger issue--in my mind, at least--is that the Church should not meddle with the State, nor the State with the Church. I am probably as opposed to the 'Christian Nationalist' position as I am to the woke Left position. A subpoint would be that the NT prohibitions against women having authoirty over men were written specifically for the church as church, and not necessarily for society at large. I think there are other reasnable arguments for that, but they're not nearly as explicit; so I wouldn't draw a line from Paul's instrctions to Timothy and Titus to 'how Trump should have set up this office.' I think he shouldn't even set it up at all. I don't know his heart fully...but to me it has a strong whiff of pandering. To channel my Scottish fathers-and-brothers in the faith... "acch, nuthin' good'll come o' that."
The flavor of "Christianity" (if we can even call it that) she represents is, to me, plastic, gaudy, faux, saccharine, "placebic", mawkish, schmaltzy, kitschy, sentimental, even _maudlin_. At best. It's strip-mall / Vegas. It's Frosted Flakes, if that makes sense. I guess what I'm saying is...it's very..._Trump_.

I do know some Christians that are all in on Trump due to stuff like this. No politician is my savior. I like that he is friendly to Christians, but I don't actually expect Him to fix things. He'll just slow the fall. As long as most of the nation has turned its back on Jesus, it doesn't matter who is President. God will judge America.
