Here’s how the top concerns of Trump Republicans differ from traditional Republicans.

How does this translate to what candidates Republicans might support in a primary? What are they looking for from these candidates?

1. FIGHTS Dems
2. Supports Trump/America First agenda
3. Outspoken against woke ideology/cancel culture pic.twitter.com/PRk7yfHZlH

Things people think matter in GOP candidates that don’t as much:

- Exactly how much someone supported Trump. Support for agenda > “consistent” support

- Being the MOST conservative/ideological litmus test

- Having a Trump-like personality pic.twitter.com/o4YM3vbFoY

in reply to Kraushaar, this guy's probably not correct but I like the sentiment:

feel like 90% of americans would come together in agreement to remove Hayes and Hannity from nightly TV. Unity!

especially because I think the media, most notably the pundit shows, does hype the culture wars issues, trying to squeeze every dime out of their potential to inflame emotions and keep people reading and watching (look at Al Jazeera's latest plans, for chrissake! guess Israel bashing just doesn't attract as large of an audience as it used to?)

White Democrats are optimistic about the outcome of talking about race; Republicans less so and Black Democrats even less so.https://t.co/UiZwcY2BkP pic.twitter.com/C5DyX5xfB3
