71. Well he's pretty emblematic of a lot of modern day American Christians

Particular conservative evangelicals. They’re often extremely greedy, worship money and wealth over all else, don’t care for their neighbors unless they think, look, and vote the way they do.

I don’t see this as often among Christians from many other countries (other than various African countries where they can be extremely conservative).

Christians throughout the world are a very diverse bunch, ranging many denominations. Many may have some conservative personal beliefs, but for the most part, they favor a social safety net, but don’t support outright fascist policies. Depending on the country’s culture, they may even support LGBT or abortion rights.

We have a weird strain of white nationalism mixed with Christianity, which is particularly toxic. I like how Talarico addresses this.
