About Kansas: I grew up on the Missouri side of the KC area; in high school worked at a drug store across State Line in Kansas. The pharmacist was vocally liberal, pro-choice. So I was shocked when he said he was a registered R! He shrugged: “Everyone in Kansas is a Republican!” — PolitiTweet.org

Johnson County, KS is the kind of swingy, affluent suburban area (outside Kansas City) that political operatives covet and watch closely (more registered Rs than Ds and LOTS of independent voters: https://t.co/uj4fPtCLaU). — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, “Christo-fascism,” vs. “white Christian nationalism,” avoids distracting debates about the relative virtue of concepts like “love of country,” and better explains why these are international movements (think Russia/Hungary) that sometimes attract non-white adherents./ — PolitiTweet.org

Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon

“Christo-fascism” may be a more precise term because it illuminates the idea that the problem isn’t “my faith influences my values and therefore my vote.” For sure. But IMO, the problem these terms really intend to describe is use of the political process to enforce religion /2 — PolitiTweet.org
