Four decades ago a defining moment changed Americas political landscape - when Ronald Reagan won big against his opponent. Today‚ Donald Trump might create a similar turning-point for conservatives
Back in the 80s (first election) people voted for Reagans promises; but four years later they knew exactly what they were choosing: right-wing ideas tax-cuts business freedom and strong foreign policy. This victory made his vision the new normal for republicans
Trumps situation looks quite alike - voters have seen his first term and know what to expect: tough border rules business-friendly taxes and america-first approach. His way of leading includes strong executive decisions harsh words and doubts about election results (which makes him different from usual politicians)
The ex-presidents plans are clear as day; he doesnt try to hide anything. People who support him next year know what theyre picking - and the party will see victory as green light to push this direction even harder. Without vote-pressure to change course the make-america-great-again group will stick around
