ELI5: How to tell the difference between a Scientologist and a Republican

They're both basically money cults out to rule the world with greed, violence, and fear. They both worship an orange psychopathic god-emperor man-baby conman. They both live in alternate universe fan-fiction bubbles and believe shit only idiots could believe.

Please help! I'm trying to pick a gift card for someone I've known for about a year and I don't want to ask if they're Scientologist or Republican. ^Seems ^rude..
