That today’s American right has radically changed since former President Donald Trump’s political emergence is beyond obvious. What’s less well understood is that the right is still transforming rapidly, and that the movement is in a vastly different — and more radical — place than it was even four years ago.
In eight new pieces, Vox explains the current state of the movement: its dominant ideologies, its newest obsessions, its defining thinkers, and its latest policy positions. We also explain where the movement is headed next — including two paths the Republican Party, and the United States, could travel next depending on what happens in the 2024 election between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.
Look out for the first four pieces coming Wednesday, September 25, and the next four coming the day after. 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.
