Some of the worst people in the country. I was raised evangelical, even the folks I know who were decent on an interpersonal level would never consider voting for anyone other than Republicans.

These people have a person in a position of trust and authority telling them a few times a week that the Democrats are going to force you to have a trans litter box in your living room. They are completely divorced from reality.
I think the particular characteristic of evangelicals is that being divorced from reality and isolated from dissenting voices is exactly what they aspire to. The more obviously wrong a position is, the more giddily you hold to it. It’s all a test of faith. Reality is the devil’s domain.
The reason white (and Hispanic) evangelicals are so popular with fascists is that they have been identified by analytics as one of the most gullible of populations.
I saw a sticker on an electrical junction box yesterday: “END RACISM AND HATE: stop voting for democrats”. Had to rub my eyes and blink a few times.
