A quarter of evangelicals oppose Christian nationalism, not all endorse it

Evidence

Yet nearly a quarter (23 percent) of evangelicals are Resisters or Rejecters. The current political climate and the high levels of support among evangelicals for the Trump administration has led to greater visibility among evangelicals who are opposed to Christian nationalism. For example, soon after exit polls showed 81 percent of white evangelicals voted for Donald Trump in 2016, a segment of evangelicals began labeling themselves “the 19 percent” to declare their opposition to the reactionary politics espoused by others in their faith tradition. As these data affirm, not all evangelicals are Christian nationalists, and a substantial minority reject it. — Andrew L. Whitehead; Samuel L. Perry, Taking America Back for God, 168
