A Libertarian And A Socialist Walk Into A Bar. Part 12
Summary
Joe Walsh explains how Donald Trump has transformed the Republican Party into a personality cult where loyalty to him supersedes policy, enforced through fundraising threats and primary challenges. He contrasts this with pre-Trump politics, noting that modern media allows some freshmen to build independent brands, though dissenters face swift expulsion. Walsh argues that the solution lies in fostering a strong independent movement with candidates who possess their own communication infrastructure and base, insulating them from partisan coercion.
