Some 65% of Latter-day Saint women voted for Trump, compared to 66% of men.

Gross. Pretty damning indictment of the LDS Church.

For once I agree with Kish.
It's hard to imagine a more damning indicator of LDS religious delusion and the resulting belief system.

Re: Two thirds of Mormons say they voted for Trump
Well I didn't.
Trump repeatedly mocked the Saints, according to reports.
And, the Deseret News repeatedly came out against him; most recently a couple of months ago publishing an opinion by the Church's constitutional lawyer who teaches at BYU law.
I find the vocal Facebook supporters of Trump these days, who are members of my stake, are decent people who have absurd and moronic and discriminatory political philosopies, but they have a lot of company. Trump is also not a true conservative. I was shocked to learn that the GOP did not publish a platform this year, and instead said it adopted Trump's positions.
True Christians vote for Trump
Fakes don't.

This picture of Jeffrey Dahmer, Charles Mason, and Donald Trump is quite compelling in a sinister way.

This confirms my suspicion that, for many members of the church, their REAL first religion is U.S.-focused "conservatism;" the actual teachings of the church are clearly secondary in their lives.
