They decided to publish an editorial that positions them on Team Trump.

That is not only a violation of the Constitution; more importantly, it is profoundly immoral,\u201d Galli wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Galli further argued that the President\u2019s removal is consistent with evangelical teachings and principles. \u201cThat he should be removed, we believe, is not a matter of partisan loyalties but loyalty to the Creator of the Ten Commandments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.christianpost.com\/news\/christianity-today-and-the-problem-with-christian-elitism.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Christian Post<\/a>\u00a0later responded with a scathing piece titled \u201cChristianity Today and the problem with \u2018Christian elitism.&#8217;\u201d Those elites included Galli, as the piece notes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr. Galli asks evangelicals supporting Trump to consider how continued support for the president will impede and compromise evangelical witness for Jesus to an unbelieving world. One might well ask Mr. Galli how his obvious elitist disdain and corrosive condescension for fellow Christians with whom he disagrees, as ignorant, uneducated, \u201caliens in our midst\u201d might well damage evangelical witness to an unbelieving world.
