I received this email from “Evangelicals for Harris”—the oxymoronically named organization that advocates for godless politics—this morning calling on the Trump campaign to “repent” for pointing out that a third-world Caribbean island’s streets are as trashy as its culture.
In response to comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s repugnant remarks at Sunday’s Trump campaign rally that Puerto Rico is a “floating island of garbage,” Catholic Archbishop González Nieves calls on Mr. Trump to repent and personally apologize for these insults. Evangelicals for Harris supports this call and asks Mr. Trump to apologize. In addition, we ask our brother in Christ, Senator Vance, a professed Catholic, to repent and apologize for allowing this.
This email reads like satire, yet it’s all too real—a blend of outrage theater and moral posturing wrapped in pious language. The fact that they’re up in arms over a comedian’s off-color remark about Puerto Rico being a “floating island of garbage” reveals how deeply entrenched they are in performative politics.
Instead of addressing actual issues that matter to Christians—like preserving biblical values, the mass slaughter of innocent children, or the strength of families in the face of relentless and militant genderqueer pursuit—they’re calling for Trump and Vance to repent for an offhand joke.
The invocation of Archbishop González Nieves as some moral authority for evangelicals is equally laughable. Since when are evangelical Christians expected to align with a Catholic archbishop’s politically charged appeals? The sanctimonious appeals to “liberty and justice for all” are just window dressing on a message that has nothing to do with the gospel and everything to do with propping up a morally bankrupt political agenda.

This isn’t a grassroots movement—it’s a manufactured effort to push liberal politics in the Church, hoping that the veneer of religious language will be enough to dupe the undiscerning.
