“Evangelicals hate him. I’m not qualified to discuss why they hate him,”

Not so much “hate”, but more “mistrust”. Basically, it’s ‘cause his “religion” is a cult. Men can become God; God was a man. Christ isn’t a Diety. Book Of Mormon has more authority than the Bible. They deny the Trinity. They deny a literal Hell. They believe there are many gods. They baptize the dead. They believe that Jesus and Satan were brothers. They believe in salvation by good works and deeds. The status of women is monumentally misogynistic (Google “licked cupcakes”). That’s the tip of the iceberg.

Evangelicals would rather have America led by Christians, as it was when established in the 1700s.

BTW, all the "Founding Fathers demanded mormon church membership". REALLY!

LDS Link

"Having learned the truth in the spirit world, the Founding Fathers returned to Wilford Woodruff and asked if he would have their temple work done for them so they could have in their lives the same blessing the people living on earth enjoyed," explained Elder Pinnock. "The gospel provides the potential for exaltation for us all. It incorporates all truth, and we must have the vision of this great work and what it does for mankind - both the living and the dead."
