Apart from nominating Supreme Court Justices (which McConnell probably chooses anyway and Trump just does for the base), Trump has been an oddly secular Republican.
While Trump is very much right-wing on cultural issues like the environment, political correctness and immigration, he has been quite moderate on social issues usually tied to religion such as abortion and LGBT rights. In fact, Trump is the first GOP candidate to support gay marriage (and is still way to the left of most Republicans on the issue) and has historically been and probably secretly still is pro-choice.
Of course while in office Trump has let congressional Republicans and Pence run wild trying to prevent the separation of church and state, as Trump doesn't care about those issues much and it helps him win over his base.
But my question is will the GOP nominate a candidate as secular as Trump again? All the likely 2024 contenders are quite religious.
