2040 U.S. Presidential Election (The New IFB America)

The 2040 U.S. Presidential Election was between Democrat Tulsi Gabbard, Republican Donald Trump, Jr., and Independent Steven Anderson of The New IFB. Steven Anderson won nearly 400 votes. Roger Jimenez, pastor of Verity Baptist Church in Sacramento, California, ran as his Vice-President.

Steven Anderson was part of a political party called The New IFB, which was also the name of a fundamentalist Christian sect created in 2016 by Steven Anderson himself. The political platform and religious sect of the same name ran on crony-capitalist economics and ultra-conservative social issues (such as the death penalty for homosexuals and keeping women in the kitchen). They would be classified as “authoritarian far-right” on the political scale, and believed socially and fiscally-conservative analysts such as Tomi Lahren, Ben Shapiro, Paul Joseph Watson and Steven Crowder were “too liberal”. The main cause of their presidential victory was through their daily “soul-winning” (meaning recruiting people to the Gospel, particularly their version of it), plus their heavy followings on social media platforms such as YouTube, Real.Video and Facebook. Fearmongering also played a large factor in their political victory, along with endorsements from creation scientists and conspiracy theorists such as Ken Ham, Alex Jones and Kent Hovind.
