He was a college student who appeared to be very clean cut and conservative. Americans for Prosperity are Never Trumpers who claim if Trump is the candidate Joe Biden will win in a landslide. I spent about 5 minutes talking to him and I bet he no longer works for them. I will detail our conversation in the comments.

I've had a few former Mormons join my church.
Their families disowned them. It's a bad cult and the social pressures put on their members is extreme. They have had a hundred years to practice these pressures. They do lose a lot of members, but their evil is adequate enough that they are still growing.
Of course the leaders of the "church" don't believe their own crap. They couldn't keep up the lies if they did.
The young men don't know any of this yet. The older men either choose not to know or choose not to do anything about it.
Yeah, it's a cult. They actively encourage divorcing spouses who leave the church. They are told to disown their own family members. I've known a few ex-Mormons who have lost their families as a result of becoming Christian. That's the sad thing about them claiming to be "Christian." That's what they say, but if one of them becomes Christian, they disown him/her. JWs are the same.
The thing about Watchtower/JWs is that every time their Watchtower predicts Christ's return and it doesn't happen, they strike it from the record and pretend it never happened. In this day of internet connection though, information cannot be so easily controlled as it was a hundred years ago.
