Episode description
Evangelical and Pentecostal conservatives are a powerful force in Republican politics.
They've stuck by former President Donald Trump for three presidential elections in a row.
That's despite Trump's long list of criminal charges, sexual harassment and assault allegations, and regular brutal, personal attacks on political opponents — all of which wouldn't fit many people's definition of Christian.
Conservative Christian support for former President Donald Trump seems to be unwavering. A North Carolina pastor says there's a simple reason why.
