Ex-Evangelical Icon Turns against Trump and GOP, Exposes His Former Movement | Burn The Boats

Dec 20, 2023 | Dara Starr Tucker guest-hosts today’s interview with Frank Schaeffer, who grew up in a hugely influential conservative Christian family that the New York Times once referred to as “Evangelical Royalty." Frank left the church in “disgust” after witnessing “unchristlike behavior” on a leadership level across the nation. He wrote a memoir, Crazy for God, about this shift in the evangelical movement. He and Dara discuss how the religious right went so badly off the rails, and took the Republican Party with it.
