Republicans play the Christian Card all the time. It plays very well with evangelicals, and you rarely see anyone say anything about it. Nevermind that we've had about all but 3 Presidents who clearly identified as Christian. And even those 3 are probably somewhat arguable.

that they do and it plays well because that's the point. those who heavily pander to evangelicals can do really, really well in districts that are like that but the second they're out of it they collapse. religion is a super easy one to play up because you don't need infer or add additional reason to it - you've got a clear belief system attached to it. all that said the limit is pretty clear as when it broadens elsewhere the religion card tends to piss off everyone else. and of course what's their reply to that? "what, you have a problem with God?" "this is a Christian nation you know!" if that sounds like an eyerolling idea, congrats, we're of the same opinion. just extend it to any other __ card.
