Desperate to win back their Christian voters.

Let's hope they know what a bible actually looks like. They would read the Pulp Fiction movie script if you told them it was a bible.

Shit on the Pope and pretty much everything Jesus advocated about, and read Bible verses performatively.

In the Bible, Jesus whooped some ass because of this, he flipped tables and chased people with a stick.

I believe Christ used a phrase for these people in Matthew...something like "whitewashed tombs"? "Which look beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean"? Is this ringing a bell for anyone?
