The Death of the Republican Party: What Happened to Conservatism?
Is the Republican Party still the party of small government, personal responsibility, and traditional values? In this episode, we look at how far the GOP has drifted from its conservative roots—and how much of that shift is intentional.
We compare Reagan and Bush-era policies with Trump’s modern-day agenda, break down the authoritarian pivot of the party, and expose just how deeply Trump’s second term aligns with the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 blueprint. From mass purges of federal workers to the military enforcement of immigration policy, this isn’t the party of your parents—it’s something entirely new.
We ask: Is Trump the cause of the GOP’s transformation, or is he just the vessel for a deeper ideological takeover? And what does that mean for the future of American democracy?
