Abstract
AbstractWhite evangelicals constitute the core of President Trump’s electoral base. The loyalty of White evangelical Trump supporters to the President is grounded in racial anxieties expressed well before Trump’s 2016 campaign. White evangelicals’ anti-immigration agenda runs deep, and it is as important to understanding the current political moment as their anti-abortion agenda. Perceptions of discrimination against Whites drives the group’s conservative views on immigration. Even as growing numbers of Black, Asian, and Latinx evangelicals exhibit political attitudes and behavior that stand in sharp contrast to their White evangelical counterparts, White evangelicals’ overrepresentation in the electorate relative to dwindling population share creates a pathway to continued political influence.
