Today’s American right has changed radically since the political rise of former President Donald Trump. What is less well understood is that the right is still rapidly transforming and that the movement is in a vastly different – and more radical – place than it was four years ago.
In eight new parts, Vox explains the current state of the movement: its dominant ideology, its new obsessions, its defining thinkers, and its latest policy positions. We also explain where the movement is headed next — with two paths the Republican Party and the United States may take next depending on what happens in the 2024 election between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Watch for the first four pieces coming Wednesday, September 25, and the next four the following day. And keep an eye out for another series in October, where we’ll examine the state of the transformed left, and where that movement is headed next.
