Trump’s Evangelical Cult of Personality (#241)

NeverTrumper Peter Wehner returns four years after his last appearance, and Dan asks how he has seen the Evangelical political landscape change in the past 4 years and since 2016. They also discuss the ongoing knowledge crisis, which overlaps so much with our politics and the current state of Evangelicalism in America.
