YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

White evangelicals comprise a third of all Republican voters and are among the GOP’s most organized voting blocs. But wide support for Donald Trump in 2016, against a backdrop of scandals, has brought heavy media scrutiny and now some faith leaders are striving to move evangelicalism away from political associations.

VICE's Gianna Toboni travels to the Bible Belt to see how evangelicals are navigating today's volatile political environment.
