In reply to the discussion: Trump's questionable morality gets a pass from evangelical voters. I decided to ask why. [View all]Lonestarblue
(12,622 posts)What do they want? I think its mostly the following.
They want all LGBTQ+ to be stripped of their rights, to endure forced and harmful conversion therapy, and to be shunned from society.
They want women to be forced to marry and stay out of the workplace having babies to avoid any competition with men. They see complete bans on abortion and contraception as a means to force women into compliance, though theyre mostly concerned about forcing more white women to have babies.
They want minorities to be put in their place, as the old white supremacist saying goes. Their place would be subservience to white people. Minority women would be expected to work but only in menial jobs while also having babies they cant care for.
They want all undocumented people forcibly removed from the US (though they might allow the white ones to stay) and the borders closed to any new immigrants.
They want anyone who disagrees with Trump or criticizes him to be thrown in jail permanently without trials or proof of crimes.
They dont care at all about international treaties, relationships with allies, national security, or global interactions. They have this simplistic belief that the US would be better off withdrawing from the rest of the worldTrumps AMERICA Firstbecause we are an exceptional country and do not need anyone else.
Some of them believe that the US should be a theocracy with laws based on their particular right-wing beliefs.
These are essentially the things that Trump has promised them.
