Description of  Insurgency: How Republicans Lost Their Party and Got Everything They Ever Wanted [Audiobook]

English | ASIN: B08GST2KJR | 2022 |MP3 | M4B | ~13:46:00 | 390 MB Jeremy W. Peters (Author, Narrator), "Insurgency: How Republicans Lost Their Party and Got Everything They Ever Wanted" How did the party of Lincoln become the party of Trump? From an acclaimed political reporter for The New York Times comes the definitive story of the mutiny that shattered American politics. "A bracing account of how the party of Lincoln and Reagan was hijacked by gadflies and grifters who reshaped their movement into becoming an anti-democratic cancer that attacked the US Capitol." (Joe Scarborough) Jeremy W. Peters' epic narrative chronicles the fracturing of the Republican Party. Insurgency is a fantasia-like story of a party establishment that believed it could control the dark energy it helped foment - right up until it suddenly couldn't. How, Peters asks, did conservative values that Republicans claimed to cherish, like small government, fiscal responsibility, and morality in public service, get completely eroded as an unshakable faith in Donald Trump grew to define the party?
