“Steve, what are the latest polls showing us about Trump’s gain with these two groups? I’m just… I… I… I have no words for evangelical voters at this point,” Brzezinski said.
“Just in terms of the numbers on this… it is a dramatic turnaround since 2016 in terms of where Trump stands with evangelicals,” Kornacki said.
Interviews suggest that Trump is resonating with a new generation of evangelical voters who feel their lifestyle and social identity are under threat.
The former president’s appeal lies in being seen as a protector of traditional values against what they perceive as far-left ideologies and a hostile court system.
This support is reflected in Trump’s overall lead among caucusgoers.
The other GOP candidates are set to participate in a debate, while Trump plans to host a competing town hall on Fox News.
