Traditional Conservatism Is Done, This Is Now a Party of Angry, White Populism: Jolly on the Trump-Vance Ticket

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
SHARPTON: “Now, David, what does the Trump/Vance ticket suggest about the direction of the GOP to you?”

JOLLY: “Look, I think the transformation of the party is complete. Traditional conservatism is done, this is now a party of angry, grievanced, white populism. You’re seeing that in much of the rhetoric. But the notion that he tapped jd Vance this go around says they are fine with angry white populism and there is no need for conservative ideology. Rev, Donald Trump this time around didn’t need his Mike Pence. He didn’t even need a Marco Rubio. He didn’t even need a Doug Burgum. He could go all the way down to jd Vance, who represents the edge of the sphere, if you will, for today’s Republican politics. Which is this angry populism that is devoid of any conservative principles. Now, that is a party and a candidate with a ceiling of about 48% of the country, and nothing they do gets them above that, which is why the notion of the blue wall states, the three to five states in the midwest and rust belt, are going to be so critical. You’ll see Donald Trump focused on those as Joe Biden has.”
