“I love you Christians. I’m a Christian. I love you, get out, you gotta get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again, we’ll have it fixed so good you’re not going to have to vote,” Trump said.

Lots of ‘em. You just hear from the ones who like to call attention to themselves.
Jon Ronson’s podcast miniseries on the culture wars talk about when abortion was adopted by the evangelical movement. It had a lot to do with some prominent pastors’ son regretting an abortion. I don’t remember the specifics, but that miniseries was great.

And among Protestants, one survey found that “the only major religious groups in which a majority do not support abortion legality in all or most cases are white evangelical Protestants (27%), Latter-day Saints (30%), and Jehovah’s Witnesses (25%)”. And those groups are minorities in Protestantism.
