I notice a total silence about Donald Trump. It's as if he can get away with whatever sins he wants to along as he is on the evangelicals' side.

President Trump Will Get Overwhelming Support from Conservative Christians in 2020 – But for Different Reasons than in 2016
In other words, they believe Joe Biden to be everything that Trump is. Lazy, impulsive, uncurious, belligerent, obsessed with settling scores, and not very smart.While there is still considerable frustration with his social media postings, SAGE Cons appreciate the Trump Administration’s progress related to federal court appointments, support for pro-life policies, investments in the military and enforcement of the law, attempts to reduce the federal bureaucracy and the authority of the federal government, strengthening America’s relationship with Israel, and support for the free market economy.
The conservative Christian group also favors the assets Trump brings to the job more than those offered in Biden. The survey revealed that a large majority of SAGE Cons viewed Trump as a hard worker (90%), patriot (89%), strong leader (89%), independent thinker (83%), tough-minded (82%), smart (76%), and knowledgeable (73%).
In contrast, at least three out of every four SAGE Cons felt that Biden is incompetent (85%), dishonest (82%), mentally unstable (75%), and senile (74%). Fewer than one out of every ten SAGE Cons perceived Biden to be compassionate (9%) or a hard worker (3%), to have good character (3%), to be knowledgeable (3%), presidential (2%), smart (2%), an independent thinker (1%), a strong leader (1%), tough-minded (1%), trustworthy (1%), or a unifier (1%).
Another outcome that reflects the distinctive perspective of SAGE Cons from that of less conservative voting blocs is how they view Biden in comparison to Trump. By a gap of more than 30 percentage points they are more likely to consider Biden to be dishonest, sexist, incompetent, mentally unstable, racist, too old, senile, represents tired ideas, and is a political hack.
