Their approach to international relations centers on engaging with U.S. allies and maintaining American military might.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Committed Conservatives tend to hold more moderate positions on immigration than the two other deeply conservative groups in the Republican coalition \u2013 Faith and Flag Conservatives and Populist Right. They also are slightly more moderate than these groups on some issues related to racial and ethnic equality but still more conservative than the Democratic-oriented groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While nearly all voted for Donald Trump for president in 2020, and most hold positive views of him today, Committed Conservatives are less likely than Populist Right and Faith and Flag Conservatives to favor a major role for Trump in their party\u2019s future. They are also less likely to say that they like elected officials who publicly take the (unsubstantiated) position that Trump is the \u201clegitimate winner\u201d of the 2020 election. And of the three largely conservative groups in the political typology, Committed Conservatives are the only one in which a significantly larger share names Ronald Reagan than Trump as the best president of the past 40 years (49% name Reagan, 35% Trump).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 data-is-section=\"true\" data-wp-context=\"{&quot;id&quot;:&quot;political-affiliation-voting-and-engagement&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"{&quot;namespace&quot;:&quot;prc-block\\\/table-of-contents&quot;}\" class=\"wp-block-prc-block-chapter wp-block-heading\" id=\"political-affiliation-voting-and-engagement\">Political affiliation, voting and engagement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-640-wide\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-58850\" href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/politics\/2021\/11\/09\/committed-conservatives\/pp_2021-11-09_political-typology_04-02-png\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"f2eceb\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #f2eceb;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-02.png?resize=480,184 480w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-02.png?resize=782,299 782w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-02.png?resize=960,368 960w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-02.png?resize=1200,459 1200w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-02.png?resize=1280,490 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"245\" width=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-02.png?w=640\" alt=\"Chart shows most Committed Conservatives identify with the Republican Party\" class=\"wp-image-58850 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-310-wide\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-58854\" href=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/politics\/2021\/11\/09\/committed-conservatives\/pp_2021-11-09_political-typology_04-03-png\/\"><img data-dominant-color=\"f5f3f3\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #f5f3f3;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-03.png?resize=480,674 480w, https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-03.png?resize=620,870 620w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 480px, (max-width: 782px) 782px, 640px\" height=\"435\" width=\"310\" src=\"https:\/\/alpha.pewresearch.org\/pewresearch-org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2021\/11\/PP_2021.11.09_political-typology_04-03.png?w=310\" alt=\"Chart shows Committed Conservatives are among the warmest toward Republicans\" class=\"wp-image-58854 not-transparent\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most Committed Conservatives (93%) identify with or lean toward the Republican Party, including 47% who strongly identify as Republicans.
