It's not about who's most religious in this case. It's about how much the evangelicals hate Hillary. Also, not all evangelicals are very religious weekly churchgoers anymore. Some of them just keep the label. In the republican primary, Trump was often slightly leading Cruz among evangelicals despite seeming like a terrible fit for religious people. Interestingly, Trump does do worse with weekly church goers than those who go monthly or yearly which makes sense considering his despicable character in direct conflict with many Christian principles.

Indeed. There is actually evidence that there are more 'cultural Evangelicals' in America than 'cultural Catholics' despite the latter being a much more common trope.

Which is not surprising at all. There's nothing exotic or non-mainstream about Catholicism in Current Year. Most evangelical churches have a far bigger impact on anyone brought up in one and are actually further from mainstream culture and even the ones that aren't (the Rick Warren style megachurches) are pretty friendly to twice a year goers.

The idea that people support Trump because he's some sort of non-interventionist is also absurd. He's the only candidate who's bragged about committing war crimes.

You think that Americans are stupid enough to not noticing what peacefull Bush/Obama caused?

Bro, you f**king created ISIS/Al-Qaeda/Taliban/you name it.

And each president caused rise of more and more bloody organisation than his predecessor.

Hmmm, cite? Even Trump couldn't provide that when he claimed Obama created ISIS, which you seem to be claiming now.
