>I think you are a couple decades behind the times.
Not at all, stop getting political commentary from reddit comments. 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.
