Their campaign is founded on the belief Republican-frontrunner Donald Trump would make the best president not only for America as a whole, but for the American Hindu population as well.
The group has taken some creative license with its logo, which features a meditating Trump upon a red, white, and blue-coloured lotus.
Though the group has faced backlash from other members of the Indian and Hindu American community, they have defended their artwork by drawing comparisons to similar campaign posters used in Indian elections.
The campaign lists five reasons why they support Trump.
The group claims Trump's bigotry targets only the less-educated and Muslim members of the American community. Therefore, as Hindus, the group believes they are advantaged by Trump's policy proposals.
None of these reasons align with or related to Hindu ideology, bringing concern to why this group of Hindus choose to support Trump on account of their Hinduism.
The group even linked to this 2014 interview of a pre-presidential Trump on their Facebook page, where he expressed his "confidence" in Prime Minister Modi and Indian economics.
But only time will tell how weird this Donald Trump campaign will get...
