Significance
The movement expanded its political influence during Donald Trump's presidency and a central question for Republicans now is how far its loyalty remains attached to Trump individually rather than to the party.
Impacts
Polls show that evangelicals overwhelmingly support a Trump presidential candidacy in 2024.
The Christian Right accounts for 15-18% of the eligible voting population, similar in size to the African-American and Hispanic communities.
Changing demographics may temper the movement's political orientation, but not in the short-to-medium term.
