Why Christianity's Decline Explains Trump’s Rise | Jonathan Rauch on Faith, Democracy & MAGA

In this thought-provoking episode, Jonathan Rauch, senior fellow at The Brookings Institution and author of 'Cross Purposes: Christianity's Broken Bargain with Democracy,' joins Matt to unravel the seismic shifts in American politics and culture. From Mitt Romney to Donald Trump in just four years—what happened to America? Explore how the collapse of Christianity, the rise of social media, and the loss of faith as a "load-bearing wall" in democracy have fueled MAGA, Trumpism, and a post-Christian right. Rauch, an atheist, who is Jewish and gay, offers a unique perspective on why Christianity’s core tenets—'don’t be afraid,' 'imitate Jesus,' and 'forgive'—are vital to liberal democracy, and how their abandonment has left a void filled by secular "religions" like QAnon and woke ideology. We dive into: -- The unprecedented "de-churching" of America since 2012 -- How fear-driven evangelicals traded Jesus for political power -- The surprising link between faith, community, and a healthy republic -- Why secular liberalism alone can’t answer life’s big questions -- And MUCH more!
