Trumpism is not a religion, but it has become such an identity for Trump voters that it has evolved (devolved) into their de facto religion. They have swapped the basic tenets of their Christian Bible with the Republican agenda and Trump.

Friends, as much fun as it is to play "Goon, fiend, or wanker? with the Trump regime, the sad reality is that this regime is actively attacking the LGBTQ+ community. Please share this LGBTQ+ friendly one-pager of mental health resources widely #PrideMonth #MentalHealth #AltComms
