In a lengthy statement, David Rothkopf sets out his concerns with the acceptance among some liberals and progressives of the overtly religious language employed by James Talarico and Andy Beshear in their Democratic campaigns.
Rothkopf is alarmed at this application of religious language and its acceptance by members of the Democratic coalition.

He's concerned that, though what Talarico and Beshear espouse runs directly counter to the Christian nationalism animating MAGA, their appeal to religion threatens the church-state wall as much as Christian nationalism does.
As a Jew (though a secular one with a family heritage of repudiating religion), he's also troubled by the Christian-specific language of Talarico and Beshear.
