I don’t have Judeo values, I have Christian Values, and I challenge someone to define the judeo part of this saying.

Monotheism is rooted in Judaism. Christ reformed Judaism. Christianity is rooted in Judaism.

However the teaching of Jesus stands alone.

This goes back to World War II when there was a national effort to create solidarity instead of divisiveness.

We need something similar in 2020 in order to counter the Democratic plan of division by identity politics.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judeo-Christian_ethics#1930s_and_1940s

In December 1952 President Dwight Eisenhower, speaking extemporaneously a month before his inauguration, said, in what may be the first direct public reference by a U.S. President to the Judeo-Christian concept:

[The Founding Fathers said] 'we hold that all men are endowed by their Creator ... ' In other words, our form of government has no sense unless it is founded in a deeply felt religious faith, and I don't care what it is. With us of course it is the Judeo-Christian concept, but it must be a religion with all men created equal.[17]

The term is Judeo-Christian values. They have a shared set of morals, of ethics, of fundamental beliefs. There's obvious differences, too, but it seems to me this term is a little questionable because in reality it's really referring to Christian values when it comes right down to it.
