Christian nationalism, or more accurately, white Christian nationalism, is an extremist anti democratic ideology whose leaders believe the United States was founded to be a Christian nation only for Christians. This ideology is aligned with white supremacy and in practice is more about identity than faith. Its adherents believe Americans must be a specific kind of Christian, conservative and white, to the exclusion of all others. Christian nationalist leaders have been key allies of President Trump since his first election. (03:14–03:22)
