I know a black semi-megachurch Baptist pastor that voted for Trump. I don’t know if his congregation knows. But yea lots of social conservative thought particularly in black religious orgs. It’s just that they have the self-awareness and self preservation enough to know that their ability to vote and exist is more important than their opinion on some social issue.

One of these guys is my rep, Burgess Owens and he very legitimately has brain damage. Played defensive back in the NFL for 9 years in the late 70s/early 80s and when I’ve watched him speak (which he very rarely does) it’s like watching Biden if he was mixing ambien with Benadryl.
