Why the Right Went Wrong: Conservatism--From Goldwater to the Tea Party and Beyond

The book "Why the Right Went Wrong" offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the fracturing of the Republican Party, from the 1964 Goldwater takeover to the Trump spectacle.

With a focus on the radicalism of today's conservatism and its roots in the Goldwater movement, this book provides an "up-to-the-moment" historical view of the right since the 1960s.

The author argues that no conservative administration since 1968 has been able to live up to the rhetoric rooted in the Goldwater movement, leading to the rise of the Tea Party and the current state of the Republican party.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the current political landscape and the forces that have shaped it.
