This pro-Trump TV show is mixing conservative commentary and end-times prophecy (NBC News)

The program fits into a growing evangelical movement that calls on followers to "think of themselves as soldiers in a cosmic conflict," said Bradley Onishi, a former megachurch pastor and author of Preparing for War, which documents the history and rise of Christian nationalism in America. To "FlashPoint" loyalists, political debates are no longer just about who wins the next election, Onishi said; they are about the fate of eternity. 

 "When you explain it that way to folks," he said, "you're able to prime them, not only for action, but I think for extreme measures."
