Some Democrats in this election cycle are trying desperately to portray themselves as people of faith. The most notable example of this is James Talarico, who is running for U.S. Senate in Texas.

The reason why this doesn’t work is that the only time Talarico even brings up his Christian faith is when he is using it to try to justify some far-left policy, whether it’s transgender children, abortion, open borders, health care, or anything else.

It’s just not genuine. He uses his faith as a political tool.

This has not stopped the liberal media from trying to use this to help Democrats win.

Look at this ridiculous recent report from ABC News:

Some Democrats trying to reclaim the issue of faith from the Republican Party

For years, Republicans have had a lock on those who base their vote on their religious preferences and values, but this year’s midterm elections have seen some Democratic candidates sharing their faith to try to connect with voters.

Starting in the 1980s, in what one expert called an “exodus,” there was a shift of voters to the Republican Party based on moral issues.

But in some of the most critical races that will help decide control of the next Congress, several Democrats are openly sharing how their faith shapes them and their politics.

One of the most consequential Senate races for Democrats this cycle is in Texas, where James Talarico, a state representative and seminarian, hopes his background will help him defeat Republican nominee Ken Paxton, the state’s attorney general, who has been marred by a series of scandals, including being the first Texas official to be impeached since 1917. He was later acquitted by the Texas Senate.

When asked earlier this year how he hopes to flip a Texas seat, Talarico said that his faith teaches him to love his neighbor despite whatever differences there might be.

“I think in Texas, across the political spectrum, there is a deep hunger for a different kind of politics, not one that’s rooted in fear or hate or division, but one that’s rooted in love, and that old politics that we’ve been suffering under for the last 10 years — politics as bloodsport, as trolling and owning, as as total war — that, that politics is dying, and a new politics is being born,” he said.

For years, the media has tried to portray the Christian faith of conservatives as a huge problem.

Now, with far-left Democrats, suddenly that same faith is an asset.

These are the same people who recently signed into law abortions up until birth in Massachusetts!  Many faithful Americans call this murder.

Do they really think no one sees the little game they’re playing here?
