This is something that has been on my mind for a while, and I am just now getting to type it all out. One thing that stands out to me about the Republican Party is that they usually have the vote of the Evangelical Christians, and this vote is very important to them - just look at how Trump went from saying he wasn't a Christian to saying he was born again so he could get the Evangelical vote to become the GOP candidate, and then the PotUS. But, I think the Evangelicals also have a reliance in the Republican Party to the point that they will vote for whoever the Republicans put out simply because they are Republican.
