    Rise of the Tea Party

    In Part 5 of the “Modern GOP” series, toward the tail end of the George W. Bush administration, we saw the rise of a small conservative movement. They believed that Republicans cared more about being in power and less about the “common man”. The rose to prominence as The Tea Party. They were portrayed as a small, organic organization. However, that wasn’t the case. New episodes will drop every Wednesday.

    In part four of “Modern GOP”, we dig into the Clinton years. After Republicans suffered a devasting loss after the 1992 election, the Republicans needed to rebrand.

    The defeat of Barry Goldwater in 1964 wasn’t the end of the movement toward modern day Republicanism. Someone in the stands took notice of his stance and appeal. However, this someone would eventually become the governor of California. Then become President of the United States. He answered the call of many of conservatives about getting rid of equal time. Allowing conservatives to say anything they want and never needed to debate. This led to the rise of Rush Limbaugh and the conservative radio media. New episodes will drop every Wednesday.
