From the party of Ronald Reagan to Donald Trump, the Republican Party is changing, but what caused these changes and where is American conservatism headed? This episode, we dive into these and other questions about the changing face of Republicans, the GOP, and American conservatism.
This episode features Yuval Levin, Editor of National Affairs magazine and a leading conservative thinker in the US. Mr. Levin served on the White House domestic policy staff under President George W. Bush. We also feature Alex Sundstrom, member of the organisation Republicans Overseas UK.
