Those who claim we were founded as a Christian nation certainly don't act like it.
Hatred toward refugees and immigrants is not a Christian virtue, and it most definitely is not an American virtue.
Cruelty is not a Christian virtue, not is it an American virtue.
Though lying will always be with us in American politics, it is not a virtue, and certainly is not a Christian virtue.
Running a casino is not a Christian virtue.
Sleeping with a porn star with a third wife at home is not a Christian virtue.
Stealing from the elderly at a fake university is not a Christian virtue.
Putting another porn star on stage at a political nominating convention is not a Christian virtue.
Refusing to accept a loss and attempting a coup is as Un-American as it gets.
Trump may or may not be the Antichrist, but his personal record shows he is antichrist-adjacent.
Trump believes his "MAGA Christians" are as stupid as the punters who used to come to his gambling dens.
The end result of all this cruelty and hatred and rank hypocrisy is that the Christian religion is dying in America, just as Alexis de Tocqueville illustrated the downfall of Christianity in Europe two centuries ago. The exact same causes and effects are in play here in America.
If these so-called patriots really wanted to make America great again, they would reject the hordes of evil con men playing on their gullibility and dragging their faith and their country under.
Or...you can ignore all the warning signs and blame someone else for what is happening to your religion. "B-b-b-b-b-but Democrats!"
Blame the trannies. Blame the immigrants. Never look inward because that just might hurt too much.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Still, most religious groups have also seen a decline in regular attendance at religious services over the past two decades.

Church Attendance Has Declined in Most U.S. Religious Groups
Nearly All Faiths Seeing Declines in Regular Attendance
Two decades ago, an average of 42% of U.S. adults attended religious services every week or nearly every week. A decade ago, the figure fell to 38%, and it is currently at 30%. This decline is largely driven by the increase in the percentage of Americans with no religious affiliation -- 9% in 2000-2003 versus 21% in 2021-2023 -- almost all of whom do not attend services regularly.Still, most religious groups have also seen a decline in regular attendance at religious services over the past two decades.
