An editor at the Christian Post announced Monday he was leaving the publication after it defended President Donald Trump.

Napp Nazworth wrote on Twitter, “Announcement: Today, rather abruptly, I was forced to make the difficult choice to leave The Christian Post. They decided to publish an editorial that positions them on Team Trump. I can’t be an editor for a publication with that editorial voice.”

He continued, “I’m saddened by what happened for many reasons. I’ve been with CP for over 8.5 years, made many friendships, and had lots of exciting opportunities along the way.”

Nazworth said that during his time at the Post, editors represented diversity within the publication and worked through disagreements, but now have “chosen to represent a narrow (and shrinking) slice of Christianity,” which is good for business but bad for Democracy.
