The state of play: Galli defended his call to remove Trump from office during a Sunday show appearance, explaining that he did not make a “political judgment,” but rather a “moral” one.
A group of nearly 200 conservative evangelical leaders sent a letter Sunday rebuking a Christianity Today editorial that called for President Trump’s removal, the AP reports.
The big picture: The evangelical leaders wrote to the magazine’s president, Timothy Dalrymple, saying that the piece from editor-in-chief Mark Galli “offensively questioned the spiritual integrity and Christian witness of tens-of-millions of believers who take seriously their civic and moral obligations.”
Once again, Unsurprising.
CT needs to understand that a goodly part of “ evangecalism” is now more a political than a religious movement.

Yeah – so much for the dam breaking.
