1976 Car of the Year. Dodge Aspen. Gas cost 59 cents/gal. Hit songs were Love Rollercoaster and Convoy.
This was the year Reagan declared conservatives must retake the GOP and make it a new party that reflected conservative values. Many wanted an all new party but they were shut down by GOP spin doctors creating panic. They were told, “We don’t have time, we only have one or two elections left to save America! It makes more sense to save the GOP than starting a new party which will let Dems win!”
Forty years and nine elections later conservatives have absolutely failed and they still fall for the same BS to keep them on the GOP plantation.
In all of our history no major ideology has failed so horribly or refused to adapt to reality on a scale anywhere near the miserable record of conservatism.
Forty years as the abused spouse of the GOP they refuse to leave because decades ago love was grand. This is all true and the reason myself and other Constitutional Patriots are working up a new party. Let others be fooled into backing a party that doesn’t even want them. We said we were going to restore America for our children and to honor our past and by God we are going to do it whether conservatives cling to self-destruction or not.
Times change. Some just never wake up and realize it. Constitutional Patriots walk our talk.
