We're now about a month into the Donald Trump presidency I never believed would happen. And I'd like to think I've come to terms with a few things things. The electoral college, for example, isn't going anywhere. And liberals like myself have a tendency to project a certain smugness and intellectual superiority that may be off-putting to conservative voters. We need to work on that. But here's the thing that I still cannot understand about this election: the way in which Christians in this country tripped over themselves to support someone who, lunacy aside, was so completely antithetical to the teachings of Jesus. So. Completely. Antithetical. Like, in a different era, I don't doubt the political opposition would have employed the term "antichrist".
