Trump is all about returning power to white Christian America

#racism #christiannationalism

While Trump’s about face on [the Florida abortion] referendum shows that the activist class still has some pull, it remains true that Trump has done something unimaginable in modern Republican politics. He has bullied the GOP into abandoning four decades of support for a national ban on abortion. Even more surprising, there’s no evidence that Trump’s renegotiation of the allegedly nonnegotiable has hurt him among the rank and file of the party.

This perplexing outcome is revelatory. Trump’s cavalier treatment of this supposedly sacred issue has exposed the Republican Party’s best kept secret: The connection between Republican voters and their leaders was never primarily about abortion. Rather, as Trump’s “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) transformation of the party reveals, Trump’s bond with his supporters is forged from different material: namely, his militant mission to return power to white Christian America.

There's No Freedom Of Religion In Kandiss Taylor's Christian Nation

During the most recent episode of her “Jesus, Guns, and Babies” program, which airs on the network owned by virulently antisemitic conspiracy theorist Stew Peters, Christian nationalist GOP activist Kandiss Taylor claimed that the Christian church is supposed to be running the government and therefore non-Christians are not entitled to freedom of religion.

...

“We shouldn’t be electing anyone in government—local, state or federal—that is not a Christian,” Taylor concluded.

Editorial: Project 2025 dismantles the Great Society and establishes Christian Hegemony - Editorial, News, Paganism, Perspectives, Politics, U.S., Witchcraft

In short, Project 2025 is a plan for dismantling advances in equality and equity while assembling a state steered by conservative Christian doctrine. Its objectives are clear. Project 2025 may avoid the term “national conservatism,” but it doesn’t pass the duck test.

Editorial: Project 2025 dismantles the Great Society and establishes Christian Hegemony

Concern about Project 2025 is widespread; the hype is that it is a playbook for undermining our freedoms and suppressing dissent. For the folks looking ahead to a long editorial and looking for the TL,DR: the hype is not wrong. Project 2025 is a...

'Unethical' and 'corrupt': Secret Alito audio revealing 'Christian nationalist' stuns experts - Alternet

Why anyone was "stunned" I don't understand.

Secret audio recording of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito casually and unreservedly telling a woman posing as a right-wing Catholic conservative that there are “fundamental” differences between the left and the right that “can’t be compromised,” and agreeing the nation needs to return to “godliness,” has sparked strong criticism by legal and political experts.

A Reporter’s Guide to the New Apostolic Reformation | Religion Dispatches

The Christian Right, which has been an increasingly powerful factor in American politics for decades, has benefited from a strangely persistent culture of denialism. We needn’t review the number of times that reporters, scholars, and religious leaders declared that the Christian Right was dead, dying, or significantly diminished. That it’s still here and stronger than ever is sufficient reason for all of us to try to get it right.

How Corporate America Invented Christian America

Inside one reverend’s big business-backed 1940s crusade to make the country conservative again.
By KEVIN M. KRUSE April 16, 2015

ChristianNationalism

This is an older, but relevant, article that gives some insight into the rise of Christian Nationalism. It compliments nicely Elizabeth Fones-Wolf's book, The Business Assault on Labor and Liberalism (1994). I've only just started The Power Worshipers by Katherine Stewart but highly recommend it. Lastly, I'll include a link to Political Research Associates and their work on uncovering Right-Wing funding.
