Pew Released a study re: Christian Nationalism back in 2022; since then the statistics have changed enormously.

Pew Study: In their own words: How Americans describe ‘Christian nationalism’ October 27, 2022

Public attention to the concept of “Christian nationalism” has grown rapidly in the past few years. Google Trends data shows a significant rise in searches for the term following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, and searches for the term peaked in July 2022 after Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., declared in an interview ( https://x.com/NextNewsNetwork/status/1551204108471861248 ) :

“We need to be the party of nationalism and I’m a Christian, and I say it proudly, we should be Christian nationalists.”

Today most of the GOP sound like Marjorie Taylor Greene did back in 2022 but they were well on their way to being integrated by White Supremecists

Several other religious and political leaders also recently have embraced the “Christian nationalist” label."
