So was Trumpism and it succeeded so well, it's followers didn't even see it coming or know that they are part of it.

Socialism in america hasn't had a religious aspect since Eugene Debs left the scene. But the original socialist movement in Europe was meant to either reform or replace both the church and the state.
Like you, I hate Trump for co-opting religion, but I also recognize that good movements have had to co-opt or ally with religious leaders. MLK Jr's civil rights movement is the most recent case in point. Trump tried to co-opt christianity for himself, in my opinion. I'd find it in my heart to forgive him if I saw a good, godly goal behind it. Maybe some do but I don't.

My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
