You're moving the goalpost. You were claiming the vote is monolithic, not "by and large."
How is the black vote for the Democrats not monolithic?
You're moving the goalpost again.
No, you just refuse to see the religious nature Democrats have. I'll agree it's different from the religious nature republicans have, but it's still there.
You ought to be experiencing cognitive dissonance between that statement and your last statement.
You don't think it's cognitive dissonance to adhere to a religion and all your political policies are contra to your deeply held religious beliefs? Like, all of them? Think of Joe Biden. Personally supports Homosexuality despite his Church saying it's against nature. Loves abortion and loves contraception, to the point he wants to force nuns to provide it in their healthcare plan.
The DNC does not make God part of their political platform. The GOP explicitly does. To the degree the GOP fails to act in a Godly manner or fails to select a Godly candidate--while claiming to be the party of God--Republicans are being the hypocrites that the Pharisees were.
Let's agree then that it's bad for the Republicans to expect complete Godliness of their candidate. It's good that many Republican's have abandoned that expectation, right? After all, you don't care if your candidate is devout? Though it's not as if all Republican's feel this way and I doubt all Evangelicals thought of Trump as a perfect man. Why then did they vote for him? Probably because they saw him as the person who would get their political priorities through. Which is what the Republicans should have been doing all along.
