MAGA Looking Hard for Data That Makes Them Feel Good

Published

on

I wouldn’t say that the MAGA folks “live on a different planet,” even metaphorically.  I’d say that they’re desperately in looking for data points, regardless of how out-of-date or clearly inapplicable, that confirm what they already believe about political life in the United States.

When it comes to Eric Trump, of course, we have rhetoric that passes from the extreme to the outrageously stupid.  Is Trump and his administration saving God and Christianity in America?

Perhaps the reason this has such an outrageous ring to it is because it’s categorically false.  The percentage of Americans who identify as Christians, about 90% in 1975, has been declining steadily since.

We’re All Looking for Data That Makes Us Feel Good, but MAGA Wins the Prize
