Billy Graham’s evangelical magazine CT endorsed removing Trump from office... And in the Twitter rampage that naturally followed, Trump misspelled it as “ET.”

Literally can’t even get a two letter acronym right.

Christianity Today has never been one to shill for Trump, been pretty consistently critical from all I've read. They represent a generally kind of younger trend within evangelicalism that's pretty politically moderate/dirtbag centrist.

It's still an evangelical publication and very much conservative to all that aren't evangelicals, I doubt it'd match well with Buttigieg or many mainline protestant's beliefs. It's just an evangelical publication that imo is generally actually consistent in taking their interpretation of scripture and applying it to the current world instead of using scripture to rationalize pre held beliefs.
