DOMRADIO.DE: While in the all over the country will be demonstrated, sets a President Trump on Christian symbolism, in order to smooth the waves. Why?
Christian Fahrenbach (a Free-lance Journalist in New York): Because so far this has worked very well for him. Because he knows that He needs this group of voters is the, I would say, “normal believers”. But he also needs the still more definite, strictly gläubigeren Evangelicals. The led 2016 that he won the election narrowly. He knows that If he would lose this group, that would be an important support group less. So far, this has worked for him well, on this basic approach. To count this Basis, the believer just.
DOMRADIO.DE: is Now available from the official Church page a lot of criticism of the conduct of the President. Is the Christian voters different?
to Bach: some for sure. Maybe the people who would go to such a Church, the like posing in front of the Trump now. The local Bishop, Mariann Budde has said that she did not agree. There had been no warning that tear gas would be used. She said: My Church was used as a Prop. He prayed there also. Everything he does is incite violence.
I think something seems to be in a group of people who think about it, Maybe this is someone with Christian values doesn’t live as much as he would have us believe. Maybe this is just a Publicity Stunt.
he Will alienate all believers in order? Be move out all the faithful now in front of him? Of course not. But the United States is always a country in which elections are decided by people in the middle. Often of very small groups of voters. Therefore, it may be that there are now half a percent, or a few hundred thousand people he would take to an election victory.
“This group sees Trump a wakener“
DOMRADIO.DE: Where Trump lives the Christian not really: He is several times divorced, he is calling for violence. How can the reconcile the voters with their Faith?
to Bach: there are actually some studies. This has to do with the voters to see: someone who fights, at least for our goals. So the Evangelicals say he is morally upright. It’s not like the total population, of course, at all so. His voters see him as an ally. There is an investigation, because two-thirds of the people have given to the Protocol that your page matters politically to the winners, since Trump is in Power. Under Obama, have said that only 25 per cent, which is significantly less.
This group sees Trump a wakener. You can’t imagine in Germany, often even. Even in a normal book store, there are rows of shelves with books, such as “The christian case for Trump” (dt: the Christian Argument for Trump) or “God and Donald Trump” (God and Donald Trump). These are books about Christians and the Trump of God, and Trump, which describe why he has to win, and what is available for Christians on the game, if he loses. This is a completely different world than the one we are experiencing in Germany often.
DOMRADIO.DE: Biden, His expected rival in the presidential campaign, the former Vice-President, Joe, on the other hand is convinced Catholic. You can drag the faithful Christians as voters to his side?
to Bach: , It will show how many voters can peel off to Biden, who are now tired easy. Or may have caused just enough of the Chaos, the Trump. There was here something evil spell: Trump’s “Make America great again” and Biden “Make Brunch great again” – so he would be the candidate that promises that the people can go back leisurely Brunch, without having to worry about politics, Worry about. I think this is also something that you can see here. So Biden the Moderate promises, the statesmanlike. He has, of course, Would also be very different.
I think what many of the Moderate and perhaps less political Interested to Biden very much appreciate is: do you know his personal history. He lost in an accident, his daughter and his first wife. Later, a few years ago, then died, his son, to cancer. For very many voters there are in this picture: Joe Biden is someone who understands my pain. Went through something Similar through. This image evoke now, could be a way for the Biden-election campaign, to say: One cares about you, understands you, the other you don’t care.
