The Survival of a Southern Baptist Who Dared to Oppose Trump
CNN’s Chris Moody writes about the aftermath of Southern Baptist leader Russell Moore’s staunch opposition to Donald Trump. Moore, the 45-year-old president of the public policy arm of the Southern Baptist Convention, apologized after facing widespread criticism for speaking against Trump and his supporters during the election. In June, Moore helped pass a resolution to condemn the alt-right at the Southern Baptist Convention: “When we stand together as a convention and speak clearly, we are saying that white supremacy and racist ideologies are dangerous because they oppress our brothers and sisters in Christ,” Moore said.
