9. What is his chosen faith? At one point he converted to Hinduism. Not that there's anything wrong with that specifically

But, was it for a sincere reason if he comes hopping back to Catholicism to please Christian conservatives (probably won't because Evangelicals don't like Catholics) even though his politics are at odds with the teachings of Christ and his affair with Erika Kirk isn't biblical either. If he divorces Usha for Erika the Catholic church won't honor his new marriage, but Evangelicals will so will he switch again?

He has no core values that don't benefit his political and financial situation at the present moment.
