Matthew 18:15-17 mixed with the slime of propaganda might be where a lot of Christians are. This is why Trump will say to get rid of taxes (a tax collector is a publican) and many Christians harden their brains (hearts) to this and won’t hear it. The multi angled war on USA and Christianity is very purposeful. A RE-publican is the opposite of a tax collector. See I offended my Christian brother and instead of repenting he might be taking this path and viewing me as the publican because he refuses to be wise. Such a fascinating thing going on.

15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.
16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established.
17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

That's an interesting interpretation of republican. I understand the information on these words.
