This jumped out at me as well.
It's an interesting read, but the author does show some misunderstanding of the non Roman Catholic and Orthodox religious world. As an Evangelical Christian, a baptized Baptist, I am not a Protestant. I share a common faith with my Reformed brethren especially in the 5 Solas, but Evangelicals are not Protestants.
....On the pressing issues of the time, where the Christian faith is under assault, American Protestants, especially Evangelicals, are on the side of the angels and often almost the only foot soldiers standing with us.
It would be nice to have the added numbers at the ballot box, but I don't see the Orthodox, or Roman Catholics, voting for the conservatives in anything close to the numbers that Evangelicals do. If they did states dominated by these 2 religious groups would be conservative rather than the liberal bastion's they are.
**but Evangelicals are not Protestants. **
I’ve never seen anyone say that before.
So are evangelicals closer to Catholicism?
