I’m sure there’s a very healthy strain of those who simply will glom onto anything that protects their monetary interests, but the “true believers” have a very different feel than they used to, where they no longer are as interested in “winning American politics” as they are in reshaping the discussion of what actually “counts” as American. Maybe it’s always been there, and is just coming out in force as the country’s evolving demographics mean that “normal” American culture will no longer have quite the same prominence and just be one more part of the tapestry. Ironically, if they doubled down on protecting minority rights and democratic institutions, their “way of life,” or at least the less toxic aspects of it, would be healthier long term.
