Abstract
The purpose of this study is to display the reasons for the support of Donald Trump by Evangelical Christians, but also criticism of Trump from a Christian perspective, both American and from a Nordic perspective. In addition, the author connects the issues involved to the larger topic of the culture war, i.e. the cultural conflict and struggle for control or dominance when it comes to values, beliefs, and practices, in American society.
