Actually, the teachings of Jesus are catnip to Donald Trump and his MAGA followers.
Have you read ALL of the New Testament? The character arc of Jesus is clear. He starts out preaching love and acceptance, but then even in the Gospels starts threatening people, and by Revelation is full fascist.

It's too easy to say that Christian Nationalism contradicts the teachings of Jesus.
In chapter 9 of the Book of Revelation, the Bible promises that God will unleash terrible monsters to torture all non-Christians for 5 months.
Jesus will be there to watch it.

When people ask how Christians can reconcile their support for Donald Trump's cruel MAGA ideology, I ask them to read the Bible's New Testament Book of Revelation Chapter 9, in which Jesus and the Christian god torture all non-Christians for 5 months until they want to die.
