Bob Smietana notes that in having immigrants rounded up, detained, deported, Trump is doing MAGA bidding. But MAGA also wants America "returned" to the "Christian" nation it was originally — or so MAGA imagines.

And ironically, Trump's draconian anti-immigrant policies are having the opposite effect from what MAGA wants in the second arena: they threaten to make the nation less Christian.

"Younger white Americans are one of the least religious groups in the country — while nonwhite Americans and immigrants are among the most religious. ...

Podcaster and conservative personality Tucker Carlson, known for his controversial takes on American culture — and his recent interview with antisemitic activist Nick Fuentes — has blamed immigration for the decline of religion in America."
