Washington Post Writer Robin Givhan Mocks Republican ‘God People’ Who Support Trump
As our Tim Graham observed back in 2020:
“Washington Post scribe Robin Givhan is supposed to do fashion writing, but it’s always smarter to see her as a political columnist who uses fashion as an inspiration.”
In her current column, the closest senior critic at-large Givhan comes to fashion is to condescendingly describe Mark Robinson’s “well-fed physique draped in a so-so suit.”
But the thrust of her screed is purely political: mocking what she—five times—describes as the Christian “God people” who continue to support Robinson and Trump, despite the
candidates’ shortcomings.

The headline is “Mark Robinson’s campaign and faith without deeds, just vitriol.” The subheadline adds: “Is this really what Jesus would do?” Givhan loves Kamala Harris, but she’s a Washington Post Democrat, so she doesn’t ask how backing Harris lines up with Christianity.
In a bit of mind-blowing obliviousness and hypocrisy, Givhan—after sitting in merciless judgment of those “God people”—writes this [emphasis added]:
“Faith is hard work. It’s not an easy path, and sometimes it can be risky, even deadly, because it requires letting down one’s guard. It demands vulnerability. It’s not a matter of attempting to horde blessings for one’s kith and kin, but trying to figure out how to share those blessings more broadly — with strangers, with antagonists, with those one might deem wholly undeserving. It’s not a matter of sitting in judgment of others’ weaknesses and flaws, but finding the capacity to extend grace when it’s the very last thing one is inclined to do.”
May your ears hear the words of your mouth, Robin. There’s no grace for Trump fans: “A particular sect of the God people seem to believe that faith without deeds done in His name is just fine. They come for Trump’s roiling rhetoric and stick around for brutality….They revel in Trump’s malevolence and narcissism.”
Would Givhan dare write a similarly stinging column about the “Allah people?”
Rhetorical question.
