I think you are a couple decades behind the times. The current Republican party doesn't share those values any more.
The current conservative movement is all in on monarchy, not what you are proposing. Look at Moldbug/Yarvin for their current philosophy.

Bush, Romney, McCain were all in the past two decades. >The current conservative movement is all in on monarchy, not what you are proposing. Look at Moldbug/Yarvin for their current philosophy. The current Republican party's platform follows classical liberalism: "Classical liberalism is a political tradition and a branch of liberalism that advocates free market and laissez-faire economics and civil liberties under the rule of law, with special emphasis on individual autonomy, limited government, economic freedom, political freedom and freedom of speech."[0] You can argue that Trump isn't following that, but it is what the Republican party has incorporated into it's platform for decades. >Moldbug/Yarvin Basically a non-player who is oversold on reddit as having some outsized influence.
