US inauguration conversations: Evangelical Christians

How white evangelicals see the future after heavily backing Donald Trump

As President Biden gets to work in the White House, we speak to evangelical Christians. White evangelicals heavily backed Donald Trump in the 2020 election, although support was slightly down on the previous election. We talk about the conversations and some divisions inside the church as the presidential politics played out. How do evangelicals see the future?

We get more of your questions answered on the coronavirus pandemic with Professor Marc Mendelson from the University of Cape Town.

We also explain the political consequences of coronavirus this week in Mongolia, where the Prime Minister resigned following protests over the treatment of a woman who had just given birth. She had also tested positive for Covid-19 and was seen in TV pictures being moved with her baby, on foot, out of the maternity ward, in sub-zero temperatures, wearing only her pyjamas.
