And although I can\u2019t fault you for being a little tired of takes on the election (and the electorate) I want to strongly recommend Ivan Plis\u2019s examination of evangelical support for Trump for National Interest<\/a>.<\/p>\n

By contrast, a study that set out to find self-described evangelicals concluded<\/a>that the likeliest Trump supporters are also the least likely to attend regular religious services. (While 88 percent of American evangelicals are \u201cabsolutely certain\u201d they believe in God<\/a>, only 58 percent say they attend weekly services<\/a>.) At the same time, self-described evangelicals have been key to Trump\u2019s success\u2014at the expense of other candidates, most notably Ted Cruz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s the creeping crack-up of working-class institutions again. As Charles Murray has written<\/a>, the subset of self-professed \u201creligious\u201d U.S. whites that is least affected by declining church attendance trends is educated and wealthy, seemingly in contradiction of every stereotype about class and religion. The loss of social capital that accompanies detachment from a cohesive church community has very real material costs, and lower-class white communities are far less equipped to withstand it than those who are rich and unchurched.<\/p>\n
