Yes. This.

I continue to harbor a great belief that too many Christians are using Trump as a political savior for a spiritual problem both in their own lives and in the life of this country. Trump cannot stop the culture from turning against the faith and, if anything, more and more data shows Trump is a catalyst for the cultural turn. He is increasing the left’s turn against the faith at a more rapid pace as so many evangelical leaders constantly beclown themselves to hump his leg. He is also increasing the right’s turn against the faith at a more rapid pace as more political apparatchiks on the right do what is expedient for political victory, including tossing grace, truth, and love for neighbors to the wind.

He Cannot Save You - Erick Erickson’s Confessions of a Political Junkie.

As I’ve said before, Evangelicals and Catholics are the avatars of public-facing religion today, and when they beclown themselves, the reputation of all believing Christians suffers.
