When the Christian Right aligns with Trump without qualification, i.e., without any
critique of his behavior, then they're implicitly stating that "values don't matter".
I don't know what you read but there has been quite a few articles by christians on the right who very clearly have criticized his past as well as present comments etc. but still believe overall his policies are more christian than what the Democrats offer
If you haven't read these articles it isn't a fault of the christian right - can I ask what websites do you read
I am from Australia and I have seen articles like this - maybe you are following leftist news so much you no longer have the ability to be impartial

Dr Brown has criticized his behavior many times. Yet supports him because of his pro-Christian policies. More than any other president we've ever had. Christians finally get a president that is doing what we've wanted done in relation to abortion, the supreme court, Israel, etc, etc, etc, and still aren't pleased. They want a perfect human being. And many Christians criticizing Trump never said a word against Obama, who was pro LGBT, pro killing babies, etc. And not to mention it's holding things against him he did years ago, not as president. It's insane.

Exactly
Dr Brown's articles are widely read and has been strong in criticising Trump on more than one occasion but still believes he is far better than any Democrat

Yes, Dr. Brown (in the articles you posted here) has criticized his behavior, not very forcefully in my view,
but at least he admits there's a problem, and I give him credit for that.
I'm thinking more about the public face of the Christian Right: figures such as Jerry Falwell Jr.
and Reverend Robert Jeffress, for example.

The church has no "central authority", that is a leftist notion.
Trump was elected and will be re-elected because he represents a repudiation of the swamp, both parties. You and the democratic socialists will never understand that. And that's okay with me.
