Only the 2nd time is surprising considering the right doesn’t believe in science

Is that a relatively recent phenomenon or has it been that way for decades?

If it's the former, it might explain why they didn't need to before.

Tea Party(2010s or so) is when they started going anti-science. They've always been pro Christian though, so it's a fuzzy line.

Explains a lot tbh
