Opinion piece about the future of the GOP
Another Republican "America First"-er. Terrific.
The global economy is not a zero-sum game. Globalization is not a dirty word. And you can't wave a magic wand and bring manufacturing jobs back. If the last four years taught anything about the economy, they should have taught that.
It's extremely disingenuous, to say the least, for a Republican to bemoan the wealth gap when their party has had so much to do with increasing that gap. Republican tax policies have favored the richest Americans for the past 40 years, at the expense of everyone else, and show no signs of changing. "Populism" is simply code for distrusting anyone with a degree (anyone not a Republican, anyway).
I don't buy it for a minute. This is the MAGA movement in fancy dress.
