Trump’s rage at Christianity Today gives away his scam.
In an unwittingly self-revealing moment, Trump responded to the magazine’s indictment of his profound moral failings with an argument that is thoroughly transactional and megalomaniacal:

The magazine’s core indictment is that Trump “attempted to use his political power to coerce a foreign leader” to “discredit” one of his “political opponents.” It adds that Trump “abused his authority for personal gain” in a “profoundly immoral” manner that damages the presidency 
the country, & “the spirit and the future of our people.”
Correct...however for over 3 years Evangelicals have been silent to every word & deed done by Trump & Pence until Trump was impeached. They are banking on their next "Chosen One" to usher in "We the Church of America

How dare you criticize me, after all the power I’ve granted to your movement? You’re breaking our deal, and now you’re dead to me.
Evangelicals quest for power.
They willingly elevated a man contrary to their belief system to usher in a government ruled by religion.
💣👉Continuing to look the other way to get more judges & so forth is no longer worth the moral & spiritual costs to Christianity itself.

As Sarah Posner details this effort is concerted, multifaceted & highly organized. Numerous high-profile evangelicals regularly depict impeachment as a disruption of God’s plan for America to be governed by Christians in accord with “biblical values.”

Impeachment is merely the weapon that the secular, satanic left is wielding to carry out its broader pro-abortion, anti-religious-liberty agenda, which requires the removal of Trump, the savior of Christian America, all to keep the persecution of Christians going at full throttle
With him in the WH, Christian right ideologues have virtual carte blanche to run his admin,as he has handed them control over personnel & policy at a level they could have only dreamed of, even under admired presidents like George W. Bush & Ronald Reagan
Trump has handed them conservative judicial nominees, from the Supreme Court down to federal trial courts, and also has installed longtime evangelical allies at key Cabinet posts.
They're undermining & eroding the very fabric of our democracy.

💣Unprecedented Power
Whether Trump’s evangelical boosters actually believe he is anointed by God or that the evidence really does exonerate him, they have one powerful motive for their unflagging support: Trump has given evangelicals unprecedented power.

Trump has handed them conservative judicial nominees, from the Supreme Court down to federal trial courts, also has installed longtime evangelical allies at key Cabinet posts, including Mike Pompeo at the State Department, Bill Barr at the Department of Justice, Ben Carson at HUD
and Betsy DeVos at Education. Ralph Reed has told his followers, “There are more Christians serving” in the Trump administration “than all previous presidents combined.”

Paula White has a plan to protect Trump from those dark forces, vanquish his enemies, and to defend the “biblical” government that has elevated Christian right personnel and policy priorities. And she left no doubt that the multiple roles she plays — presidential personal pastor
White House employee and defender of Trump against his enemies — have merged into a single message of God’s wrath against anyone who dares criticize him. “Any persons, entities, that are aligned against the president,”
