The Religious Right is no longer a primarily religious movement - it’s one about cultural conservativism and nearly blind support for the GOP with few trappings of any real religiosity behind it.

I’ll take "cultural conservatism", even cultural hypocrisy, over lawlessness and libertinism. "Hypocrisy is the compliment vice pays to virtue"—La Rochefoucald. An atheist might think it’s better to be frankly, publicly evil but society works better when people even pretend to be good (for the greater good), something this generation knows zip about. (Of course I’m not recommending personal hypocrisy before God, just the societal kind the Baron's maxim referred to above)

It’s a pretty obvious attack at those refusing to “blindly” support the situational conservatism of Trumpism/populism.
