Why Didn't Evangelicals "See Him Coming"? is a hard-hitting, clear-eyed account of how American society, the political establishment, and the rule of law reacted to a sociopath president. After Donald Trump left office, Americans didn't "see him going" either. Trump came and went, yet millions of Americans were "clueless" about what happened because of his "gaslighting tornado." An evangelical Christian author explains why Bible-believing, church-going, Jesus-talking, America-loving evangelicals, along with other Americans, listened to, were enamored by, and elected an immoral sociopath. An unlikely combination of viewpoints--psychology, law, and biblical theology--provide a surprising, coherent picture of how Donald Trump deceived and inflicted devastation on democracy. His uncanny influence is chronicled by media reporting during his four years in office and afterwards in a "shadow presidency" at Mar-a-Lago. If Trump succeeded in anything, it was deceit. Psychologists rightly attribute this to his "gaslighting"; biblical theology probes deeper, to his corrupt human nature. An FBI search warrant at Mar-a-Lago revealed the inevitable truth: Donald Trump was a thief and traitor from the beginning; the law finally caught up with a long overdue, unaccountable serial criminal for crimes that America would not tolerate.
