    I have family that believe trump is necessary for Christianity to win and that I and my step-siblings are only safe because they are intervening for us. This is in central Ohio from evangelicals.

      Now ask them if Christianity winning means purposefully bringing upon the end times.

        The thought previously crossed my mind, but I don’t think that’s what they’re going for and don’t want to put any more strain on that relationship (people are more likely to be un-radicalized when family don’t just pretend they no longer exist and I’d rather not create more conflict without a clear purpose and push them further into extremism).
