However, loved experience in the US will very much depend on which state you live in.

For example: several conservative states have been passing bans on abortion, meanwhile liberal states have been passing laws guaranteeing the right to an abortion.

What happens if senate and WH get taken by a republican next election? Federal bans on abortion and being gay/trans? Do the policies even stay in the US or would the leader of the free world export them by any means necessary?

I think that’s very unlikely. No democrat would agree to a federal law banning abortion, which means 100% of the Republicans would have to agree to that ban, which would be wildly unpopular in many of their states.
