It is so sad that "Christian" is associated with very NON-Christian behaviors. Obviously they never ask themselves What Would Jesus Do.
They are Christo-Fascists or Evangelibans.

Meiselas: One of those headlines I had to reread. We’re not allowing the president of Taiwan into the U.S.? Our ally? Trump caved to China’s demand and blocked him. MAGA screamed Dems were weak on China—then did exactly what they fear-mongered about.

I have watched a few formerly left-leaning folks fall into a hole of propaganda over Gaza, Columbia's bribe payoff, and even Epstein and whew it is so upsetting to watch.
Anyone can fall prey to propaganda, but if you are reposting administration talking points as truth, that's a HUGE warning bell.
