From what I can tell so far this seems to be a rehashing of traditionalist conservatism with the intent of breaking fusionist idealogical dominance. Trump has largely smashed that coalition in real-world politics with his uniquely antagonistic populism. If Hazony thinks that any of his NatCon values will be represented in the contemporary Republican Party, he is a fool.

For anyone who gives a fuck, this book is so fucking boring, Jesus Christ man. I have listened to TWO other audiobooks in the time I’ve been working through this one. How many times can you tell someone that the answer to ALL our problems is family values and “enlightenment liberalism” is bad. In the words of Sheldon J. Plankton: “ALL RIGHT I GET IT!”
