Northeastern University: What is Dominionism and How is it Impacting Republicans?
A once-obscure, charismatic religious group, dominionists believe Christians should dominate business, government and culture.
Decent article for the most part, with a couple of huge fallacies:
Whether conservative religionists acknowledge it or not, they have been waging war on the "seven mountains of culture" since megachurch pastor, James Robison, made a devil's bargain with Ronald Reagan to win the 1980 presidential election by co-opting conservative religionist voters.
The Southern Baptist Convention has walked right alongside, refusing to discipline members who stump for political candidates or ideologies from the pulpit. Bart Barber lied by omission in that 60 Minutes interview, and the SBC is still following his example.

Right-wing pastor James Robison, who has been a key spiritual adviser to President Donald Trump, called in to
Kyle Mantyla at RWW:
Right-wing pastor James Robison, who has been a key spiritual adviser to President Donald Trump, called in to “The Mark Davis Show” on Friday, where he delivered a passionate defense of Trump and his family, and declared his love for the president and the first lady.
“In our conversations and in our times of prayer together, which they have been many – many, many, many – I have never—I am 76 years old, I have been close to four other presidents, I want to say this to you: never in my life have I seen a man more receptive to truth when it is delivered straight at him,” Robison declared. “I have never seen a man treat a mean media nicer than he does. Every time he walks out of the White House, he stands there and talks to a people committed to lynch him, to destroy him, and he’s courteous and polite to them.”
From the 12.06.2019 edition of KSKY’s The Mark Davis Show:
Right-wing pastor James Robison appeared on “The Chad Prather Show” on Glenn Beck’s The Blaze network last month, where he declared that no reasonable person could even consider voting against President Trump in 2020 because the prayers of Christians are surrounding him with wisdom while the Democrats descend into complete insanity.
After Robison, who has been a key spiritual adviser to Trump since the 2016 election and has repeatedly insisted that Trump is on a path to developing a deep faith in Christ, laughably claimed that people can see Trump’s deep respect for God in how politely he treats members of the media, he warned that Democrats cannot be allowed to defeat Trump in 2020 because “they’ve become mentally deranged.”
“The left does not give a rip about anything but protecting their future and their place in power,” Robison fumed. “It’s almost like they’ve become mentally deranged. Romans I says they have a reprobate mind. Once you cast aside the truth of God and change it into a lie, you are given over to control by your own appetites, even when they’re unnatural. But you’ll reach a place where you can’t think straight. You don’t know right from wrong, good from evil, night from day, left from right. You think 2 + 2 = 5 and you will defend that nonsense.”

James Robison Interviews Eric Trump on Faith, Fathers and the Inner City
“He [Donald Trump] opens up the paper each morning and sees our nation’s leaders giving a hundred billion dollars to Iran, or he opens the paper and some new school district has just eliminated the ability for its students to say the pledge of allegiance, or some fire department in some town is ordered by the mayor to no longer fly the American flag on the back of a fire truck. Or, he sees the tree on the White House lawn has been renamed ‘Holiday tree’ instead of ‘Christmas tree.’ I could go on and on for hours. Those are the very things that made my father run, and those are the very things he cares about.”
Too bad not a single one of those things is true:
The United States did not give a hundred billion dollars to Iran. The money always belonged to Iran, not to us; it was just frozen under economic sanctions. (And it’s also less than $100 billion.)
No school district has ever eliminated the ability for its students to say the pledge of allegiance. (Neither has President Obama.) State law expressly requires time for recitation of the pledge in school in all but four states (Hawaii, Iowa, Vermont, and Wyoming).
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled back in 1943 that expelling students for refusal to recite the pledge is unconstitutional (West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette). Students are thus permitted not to participate if they so choose, but this in no way eliminates the ability of any student who chooses to participate.
Florida schools must inform students in writing of their right not to participate in the pledge, but again this in no way eliminates the ability of any student to participate. That law has been on the books since 1942.
No mayor in any town has ever ordered a fire department no longer to fly the American flag on the back of a fire truck. Last year a Rhode Island Fire District Chairman asked his firefighters to remove flags, but:
It was never an order;
The District Manager said it was in response to “taxpayers who brought the issue of dirty and dingy flags on our trucks to our attention and questioned us about proper flag etiquette”;
The Chairman later apologized for any “perceived disrespect” from him; and
The District’s policy now requires firefighters to “ask for permission” to put American flags and decals on their trucks, which is a far cry from prohibiting them altogether.
The White House Christmas tree has never been renamed “Holiday tree.” The tree has been called the official White House “Christmas tree” every year: 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015.
I, too, could go on and on for hours.
In fairness, I must concede that Donald Trump probably did actually read all of these false stories somewhere... given his well-established track record of repeating false claims over and over regardless of how many times they are proven to be false.
