She lays out in detail what I've been saying for a long time. The MAGAs who call themselves Christian do not follow any of the teachings of Jesus, but rather do the opposite of his teachings most of the time.

i am a fan of jesus' teachings, specifically matt 5-7 , th sermon on the mount and the golden rule. i don't think christ would be recruiting proud boys cozying up to herod.

15 “Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
