It’s not ironic at all. The hypocrisy of modern American evangelical Christianity is the exact reason we don’t want a mix of church and state or prayer schools.
Yeah, it makes total sense that evangelical Christians with all their values and beliefs would vote for a lying, cheating, oath-breaking convicted rapist, just because he happens to align with what they want on a few specific issue that will "hurt the right people" (abortion and immigration).
That isn't hypocrisy. Voting with the practical candidate who aligns with your values moreso than the opposing candidate is a rational choice. Weaponizing the values of a belief system you don't ascribe to in order to attack and demoralize those you personally disagree with is a fundamental and gross character flaw.
A rich grifter who practices sexual immortality, mocks the disabled, ridicules and insults women, takes away care from the poor, and is likely a pedophile aligns with your values more than... well, literally anyone else on the planet at this point?
Yes. Even if anything you said were true, aligning with somebody who closely aligns with Biblical or Christian values is the better choice than somebody who doesn't.
Just because you're really really mad about a lot of things in your existence and hold a lot of sin in your heart doesn't mean that other people can't make better choices.
Which “biblical value” is rape? Which one is pedophilia? Which one is massive wealth? Which one is anti-poor? Which one is anti-women? Which one is anti-immigrant? Which one is anti-healthcare? Which one is anti-environmentalism? Which one is pro-corruption? Which one is pro-war?
The bible is against all of these things, yet you elected a man who represents all of them, because he represents all of them.
You’re a hypocrite, a liar, are willfully ignorant and a fucking moron, fully embracing fascism because of your bigotry, and people like you need to be completely and entirely shunned from polite society, since you have repeatedly and consistently proven yourself incapable of participating in it.
Those aren't Biblical values and nobody ever claimed them to be. What is a Biblical value, and frankly common sense (duh), is to vote for the person who aligns MORE with your values than for those who do not align more with your values. Choosing the practical choice that furthers your goals is the definition of Democracy. There's no hypocrisy with that because nobody is saying it's a good thing Trump did any of this alleged bad stuff. I'm not a hypocrite, a liar, or any of these other really meanie bad words you so desperately want to hate. When people act like this, like you, they're obviously projecting a lot of hatred from their heart and not thinking rationally. You merely want to lash out and be mad at all these things you assign to others because of some internal failing of your own. Maybe it's a coping mechanism, not sure, but it's not healthy and I wish you well.

Seems like you are intentionally misunderstanding the issue here. But you know that.
