Wow, it turns out if your core identity as a party includes attacking the validity of robust scientific claims, then scientists don't like your party quite as much. Who would have thought?

Shocking revelation: Scientists do not donate to the anti-science party.

The only way scientists could regain the “trust” of today‘s right is by telling them what they want to hear. But then they would stop being scientists because the right does not want to hear facts. They don‘t want truth, they want truthiness. Reality has a well-known liberal bias.
