The evangelical support for Trump reminds me of a specific chapter in the Bible.
When Jesus came to the temple, and he saw that the money-changers were doing business there, he grabbed a whip and got on a rampage and beat them out of there.
Because they had turned the temple, a place of God, into a mundane place of greed and business.
The Evangelicals have done the exact opposite with Trump.
Instead of protecting their faith against corruption, they are willing to compromise and to overlook all kinds of sins big and small for the sake of political wins.
When the impious business-man came to the temple to corrupt it, the Evangelicals didn't throw him out. They made room for him in the temple and welcomed him for the mundane rewards his dealings would bring.

Organized religion is inherently corruptible. It takes advantage of the weak minded and convinces them god is on their side. Once that simple task is complete, the sky is the limit.
