Evangelicals and 95% of Christians wouldnβt vote for Jesus Christ himself if he ran as a Democrat. Stop telling me that Roy Cooper had to say he prayed to God about our government to get their votes. Your excuse is as blind as your faith.

This complaint is why the DNC sees Trump voters as more gettable than far left 'voters'.
And theyβre wrong
So...none are gettable?
Trump voters? There may be a few on the margins but most likely not enough to sway an election. Most of them would rather be attacked by a swarm of locusts than vote for a Dem.
Yes, but the 95% is very off.
That's just stupid. 95%? I consider myself agnostic, but I know that there are PLENTY of practicing Christians who routinely vote Dem. Statements like this do nothing but insult religious people and highlight your own prejudice.
Yes. Joe Biden is a Christian. So is Barack Obama. So is Hillary Clinton. The Trumpies pretend that they are the only Christians in the country. They are lying, just like their leader.
Amen!
Maybe Roy Cooper did pray. That's his right. As long as he didn't impose his religion on others, that's his choice.
Idk if you live in NC, but faith here is a signalling. Enough so that I got culture shock from the Christianity of my students. If you donβt live here, idk if you can talk about the voters. Also, millions of Black voters in the South are practicing Christians.
Also, we donβt win this by telling the majority of voters that even praying makes them βblind.β Iβm agnostic, but we donβt get out of this by promoting intolerance, and that includes towards faith thatβs not hurting anyone.
What a position of privilege from which you speak to reference Christianity as a faith not hurting anyone.
βExpressions of faith,β pardon me. People being faithful.
You canβt avoid magical thinking in this county. Pathetic but true. Not ideal. Heβs can consult his Magic 8-Ball if he wants as long as he doesnβt advocate for Magic 8-Balls in school. It appears he believes in separation state and Mattel, for now.
Youβre not from NC. Obviously. Glad we wonβt have to worry about how you cast your vote.
This person should not speak for 95% of Christians. I don't know their faith, but would never question them or their faith.
I agree with you, 1000%. It should be irrelevant. But being from NC, my friend, Cooperβs faith is attractive to the base of faux evangelicals that are riddled throughout the state. That being said, if it gets him into the Senate.. Iβll stand down. He would be a terrific senator for NC.

Iβm sure the percentage of Democrats who are Christian is much higher than 5%.
Especially in North Carolina. Truly people don't understand the religiosity of the state.
Yeah, so the party will cater to them I guess because we need votes more than we need integrity. Good plan.
Whatβs wrong with catering to progressive Christians? If they actually profess the values of βlove thy neighborβ I have no issue with them.
Exactly. My mom hates Trump and his policies, and is a devout Christian. She would absolutely sound a lot like Roy Cooper if she was running for office in NC!
Good for your mom. I donβt understand how a genuine Christian could possibly support trump.
Me neither. Other than the fact that historically Christians have done some awful things and the Bible is construct in away to support almost any "moral" position is you choose the appropriate passages. But that usually relies largely on the old testament.
Should a candidate cater to any demographic? Or should they appeal to them by learning about what's important to them and speaking about how their plans around these things? There are very real concerns around the integrity of the midterms. Please check into that so our voices can simply be heard.
I'm an atheist, but having a more Christ-like form of Christianity hurts no one. A progressive Christian movement in this country isn't a terrible thing. And if he truly is as Christian as he seems to be, I don't think he's being insincere.
Americans wonβt even vote for a smart woman over a criminal. Let alone a Jesus. Fools.
π―π―π― Stop kowtowing to these fake religious zealots. They are not interested in living in a democracy.
Agreed. And I didnβt make Christians untrustworthy allies. Their actions over the past several decades Iβve been alive did that.
That is because too many Christians have turned their backs on the teachings of Jesus. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2025/07/toda...
Reality is there are very few religions that are compatible in human practice with true democracy.
Damned either way
Or he could just not mention religion at all, and make his entire campaign about our government and the policies that he supports
Yall are really getting on my nerves. So TF what the man said he prayed hell I pray every damn day and most ppl need to be happy that I do. Its mostly for them and not me! This purity bs is the reason Republicans will stay winning!
Joe Biden, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton are Christians. The right wing Christians want us to think that they are the only Christians in the country. They are liars.
If he ran as a Republican they wouldn't vote for Jesus Christ because he's an unmarried, brown skinned, Middle Eastern carpenter who is pro-immigrant, anti-war and for Social Safety programs, like healing the sick and feeding the hungry. Hell, they'd sick ICE on Him and have him deported.
The ones proclaiming us heathens today would have saved Barabbas 2,000 years ago.
That's because Evangelical Christians are troubled people seeking an easy fix to their problems. America would be better served if they had chosen alcohol or drugs.
or assisted suicide. sorry not sorry the "humane" option for beloved pets should be the same option for beloved humans but thats too fucking woke. fuck christian dogma.
25% of the US population claim to be Evangelicals. That's 50% of GOP voters. If they followed Christian dogma, voted for helping the disadvantaged, Dems would win every election. But because Evangelicals are the most gullible people in the US, embedded money's propaganda will always be effective.
If they only held Matt. 25:31-46 to heart: βI tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.β
Thank you. Keep that shit out of our government
They'd rat Him out like He was Anne Frank and cheered as ICE picked Him up and deported him, without due process (not even an appearance before Pilate!), to El Salvador.
The Hammer..
BS
And yet he has won multiple times in NC statewide.
And yet that has nothing to do with my point.
Fake Christians wouldnβt know Jesus if he walked up and introduced himself.
