As recently as five or six years earlier, even as the evangelical-political brand was becoming more disputatious, it would have been scandalous to see such vile and violent symbolism at an event associated with Christianity.
I think this is a perfect example of what I didn't like in this book. The whole premise is that evangelicals recent turn into Qanon level conspiracy hurts the church. At times however, it becomes clear that this isn't a recent thing. At times the author slips and talks about Obama's terms in office with the tea party movement, which is very similar in both vitriol and violence.
