So let's change the focus, look at this lady, prominent in the rnc
How is that conservativestrange times making for strange bed fellows
Christ is king will be issue, I can see why
Indians in general are smart, hardworking, less argumentative and aspirational. They will succeed wherever they go.
Not just in politics, you're going to see more Indian-origin folks in other areas as the newer generation spreads it's wings.
Better conserve some tears for future as well.
In the establishment, but not on the street, fully.
still some strong Christian identity in the USA.
What happened to judeo Christian civilization btw, the tent is very very open
True
I think you are misunderstanding U.S. politics by trying to create some grand unified theory of "religion and civilizational link". That is not how politics works here. Both parties are coalitions of interest groups. Democratic party has slowly morphed into generally non-whites and better educated whites. Republican party - now MAGA - has morphed from an upper-class white to working class whites and some non-whites. Both parties have people of all religions. Jews are generally Democrats but there are many in Republican /MAGA too. In fact, the brain behind Trump's anti-illegal immigration (and likely 'Muslim' Travel Ban during the first term) is Stephen Miller, a Jew from California. Same with Indians. There are many Democrat politicians of Indian origin, the most famous being Kamala Harris who is a heartbeat away from becoming POTUS. If Trump wins the Presidency (as seems likely), expect Miller to be the face of anti-illegal immigration action for the next administration, notwithstanding all the excitement about Mrs. Vance.

Nothing, just routine politics to emphasize Republicans/MAGA is a "Big Tent" party and not just for whites/Christians etc., Not different from having Hindu or Muslim or Jewish etc., prayer in Congress or Whitehouse. If you read/watch U.S. media, 'diversity' is the big thing nowadays and what can be more diverse than a Sikh lady praying at a political convention?
Ok fair, but does this fit into maga expectations and can it persist
Well, let us looks at some facts.
They are not factoids. They are evidence that "Judeo-Christian" has no salience to MAGA. MAGA is economic protest. If inflation was much less in the last 4 years and people felt they have the same economic opportunities as in 1990s for example, MAGA would have gone the same way of Ross Perot's "United We Stand America". Do you remember them? Likely not. Do you remember "Tea Party Movement"? What happened to it? Do you think Kid Rock, Hulk Hogan, Dana White are "Judeo Christian"? Most will consider them trash. These flashes in the pan have no staying power absent grievances.
