It Was All a Lie: How the Republican Party Became Donald Trump by Stuart Stevens

4.0

I listened to the audiobook.

Starting 1980, I spent my career working overseas during the rise of right wing radio and TV. I’ve felt like a fish-out-of-water politically since my return. I don’t recognize the Republican Party that I grew up with. Where would Eisenhower fit today? How about even daddy Bush? Thank you to Mr. Stevens for explaining and describing the changes in the Republican Party over the past 50 years. My family were dedicated Republicans; my dad even voted for Goldwater.

Now I understand what happened and why I do not find the Republican Party a welcoming political party with a focus on the future.
