In rural Georgia, evangelical Christians (almost) all in for Trump
Churches dot the green hills of Rabun County, Georgia, where American flags flutter and God is everything – but Donald Trump is not far behind. In the southern battleground state, the faithful are well aware that the Republican former president is hardly a model Christian, but they forgive him because he appointed three conservative-leaning justices to the Supreme Court that voted in 2022 to overturn Roe v. Wade, removing a woman's constitutional right to an abortion. "Do I believe that he believes abortion is wrong? No. I don't believe that," says a local Christian resident, but "I would say he did a good job on that," he adds.
