I'm not claiming you're voting for Trump. But voting for other Republicans because they (claim to) align with your religious views will only give Trump more power if he gets voted in

I don't live in the USA, but if I did, I wouldn't care what religion the president is unless he'd ban mine or sth.

I don't live in the USA

Then why are you defending the Republicans? In the US, a politician saying "we just want to live God-fearing lives" is absolutely code for wanting to impose religious beliefs onto others

That's because your politicians are best at bullshit. I'm not defending the republicans, I'm saying that not everyone who's afraid of God imposes their religion onto others.

Also, of the republicans said they want to stop climate change, but use that as a pretext to ban EVs because bAtTeRiEs, wanting to stop climate change isn't defending the republicans. I know that living a God-fearing life isn't the same as stopping climate change, but it's just an example.
