Nah. Trump has ushered in an era of Populist Republicanism that looks nothing like the limited government of traditional Reagan Republicans. It rejects free trade, embraces nationalism & xenophobia and is proudly ushering in an era of Neo-racism
You’re nuts if you think this is same Republican Party of the last 50 years. Trump exploited a fissure in the GOP and has had it on lock for the last 8+ years
That’s where you are wrong breh. These are the same exact types of people who voted for Raegan and the Bush’s. They are just letting their freak flags fly with Trump. They are saying publicly what they have been saying privately for decades.
Nationalism, xenophobia, culture issues, resentment of the “others” is the only thing these people ever cared about. Low taxes, small government, states rights etc. we’re just proxies in their fights.
It sounds reductive, but the history of this country since the civil war bares out my argument.
