 Trump knows he can waffle a bit on abortion and the Christian fundies will still vote for him.

 Bitcoiners simpin’ hard for Trump these days 
 I voted for him in 2016. I didn't vote in 2020 because he pissed me off that year. Piss poor leadership. He didn't get reelected because people like me stayed home. I'm voting for Kennedy this year. Consequences be damned.  
 A sociopathic personality like Trump will never do anything good for the country. I wish more people would realize on both sides that regardless of their politics, we’re pretty fucked if we just keep electing someone that 50% of people hate. 
 It stinks when you have Biden and Kennedy saying basically "abortion is great and everyone should have one" and Trump who saying something like "I don't like abortion, but maybe some are OK."  He seems to be the least bad option, but they are all bad options.  

It does break my heart seeing Christians fawning over Trump.  There are a lot of Christians guilty of idolatry and worship of other "gods." 
 I had somebody on Twitter literally tell me that Trump is ordained by God. WTF bullshit are these pastors spewing on Sundays?
