I am not from America and lives in Europe. I am trying to understand what life and values the republicans in office right now wants for America. Is the 50’s America the kind of country they hope to go back to or is it somewhat of a new state we have never seen before?

I am genuinely wondering if they have some kind of “utopian” community in mind doing all these changes to the economy and values.

    I think they want to remove Atheism and all associated things with it from society. Trump calls himself christian, and his followers (voter base) are evangelical Christians.

    Evangelical Christians …

    • believe once Israel builds a temple the judgement day comes
    • all people who do not believe in Jesus is the personified God (or something like that) will go to eternal hell
    • believe in free market capitalism and hate all kinds of communism and state control in economy (even science)

    And these evangelical gospels align well with Trump.

      Not true, that’s zionism.

      • believe in free market capitalism and hate all kinds of communism and state control in economy (even science)

      Also not true.

      It’s an overlap. Those two things have nothing to do with Evangelical Christianity.
