This is a real game changer. I had no idea of this Right Wing MAGA world. Shocks me. Incredible stuff.
The author has a PHD in political theory from UT-Austin. Very impressive. With a Leo Straussian background. Lots of talk on Allan Bloom and Harry Jaffa. At this point I still do not understand the appeal of these three heavyweights, how and why they have been so influential.
The Old Right is a base of today's conservatism, but it seems to me it's mostly archaic. Goldwater seems mostly harmless today.
I have never heard of conservative Harvard Professor Harvey Mansfield. P. 60
Post liberalism features Patrick Deneen I bought his last book, but never read it. Post liberalism, actually a version today's conservatism, so far is not worth my trying to understand it. P. 70
The MAGA new right is too busy and complex for me to waste too much intellectual blood on.
Trump has new right MAGA support. I had no idea.
