The context of Trumpism
First, understand this: There’s no Charlie Kirk without Donald Trump. Kirk could not have risen to fame the way he did without riding the coattails of Trump.
The context of evangelical faith, Christian nationalism and Seven Mountains Dominionism
Kirk’s defenders make a lot of his evangelical Christian faith. He talked about Jesus a lot. I am not doubting his sincerity. He seemed to be a serious Christian. The problem: The Christianity about which he was serious was not shaped by the gospel but the idolatry of Trumpism and an evangelical faith cut loose from its moral values.
