Tracing a Beginning of a End of a Once Grand Old Party
- Updated: February 12, 2023
More than 40 years and 4 Republican presidents resulted in a final implosion of a Grand Old Party. Today’s Republicans in name usually have dispensed with a principles, morals, and ideals of their predecessors. The “Party of Lincoln” is though a memory and will never return.
Remembering Nixon for a Bad, though Also a Good
The final loyal Republican boss was Richard Nixon. Sadly, his ambitions led him to a ashamed act that has turn his legacy. However, his accomplishments were noble, memorable, and served a needs of all Americans. Today’s right wing leaders paint special interests and omit a needs and wishes of a many. You know their names, and they are an annoyance to a group and women who preceded them.
Nixon should have been remembered for his successes as he represented what it meant to be a member of a GOP. He total a Environmental Protection Agency that is deserted and disrespected by all group and women on a right side of a aisle today. Nixon finished a breeze and done it probable for 18-year-olds to vote. He began a sovereign government’s quarrel on cancer by dedicating $100 million. Nixon sealed Title IX, guaranteeing women equivalence in collegiate sports. It was Nixon who desegregated southern schools. He total a attribute with China and sealed a initial non-proliferation chief arms agreements with a Soviet Union. There are many more. His accomplishments severely outnumbered a total successes of a subsequent 4 Republican presidents.
Reagan’s Reputation Is Founded on Lies and Illusion
Sadly, a 40th president, a subsequent after Gerald Ford’s brief stay in a White House, deserted a fundamentals of his party. He began his initial tenure by rejecting personal freedoms, finale support for tiny business and a operative man, permitting vast companies to caring for themselves, and a support of all Americans to opinion in each election. His name was Ronald Reagan. Possibly his many gross impiety was to adopt Christianity as a usually loyal sacrament and concede that faith to meddle in his policies.
It was Reagan who began a wars on a operative category and women. His unsuccessful mercantile process of drip down economics, that was after adopted by a subsequent 3 Republican presidents, unsuccessful miserably. When he left bureau in 1989 stagnation was rising, and a republic upheld a one trillion dollar series in a inhabitant debt. It was Reagan who began support for a super-rich/special interests. He certified a initial outrageous taxation cuts for a rich and corporations.
A Good Foreign Policy, though a Disastrous Domestic Agenda
Reagan is remembered for his successful unfamiliar policy. He should be remembered as one of a misfortune presidents in story formed on his mortal domestic policy. He also began a changes in a Republican Party we knowledge today. Racism, bigotry, misogyny, and xenophobia browbeat right wing politicians.
Reagan’s inheritor hereditary a unwell economy, and foolishly adopted a same unsuccessful mercantile policy. He was suspended after a singular term. we reputable George H.W. Bush, though he was an ineffectual president.
A President Chosen by a Supreme Court
In 2000 a Supreme Court crowned George W. Bush as a 43rd president. This reliable my faith in a dissolution of a Electoral College. Al Gore won a renouned vote, though a people were denied their choice.
Although he was warned of a probable conflict on a country, he went home to Crawford, Texas, for a vacation. It was during this time that a villainous attacks on 9/11 occurred. This occurrence resulted in a rendezvous of a republic in dual unwinnable wars. When he left bureau in 2009, a republic was in a Great Recession and a wars raged on. we will remember him as a second misfortune boss in history.
The Worst President by Far Remains a Free Man
I saved a misfortune for last. With a assistance of Vladimir Putin, James Comey, and a mainstream media, Donald John Trump perceived a win in a Electoral College in 2016.
During his initial days in bureau he disregarded a Constitution mixed times. He would go on to be impeached twice and classify an attempted manoeuvre on a government. When he left a White House he stole 14 boxes of personal material. His unsuccessful mercantile policy, a same as Reagan’s, total with his disaster to lead a quarrel opposite a lethal pestilence placed a republic in mercantile hazard once again. His gifts to a rich are obliged for America reaching a unforgivable series of some-more than 30 trillion dollars in debt.
A Democrat Erased a National Debt
Never forget that when President William Jefferson Clinton left bureau in 2001 a inhabitant book gifted a surplus. The dual misfortune Republican presidents in story topsy-turvy a situation. We can no longer explain to be “the richest republic in a world” as prolonged as there is indomitable debt.
A Party and a Nation Deeply Divided
Today a former Republican Party is in finish disarray. Extremists have finish control of a Speaker of a House and therefore a instruction it will take for a subsequent dual years. There is not a singular Republican competent to run for office, and really not for a presidency.
RIP, GOP
