Is a New GOP Being Born? Pat Buchanan argues that a huge policy shift is taking place in the USA:

[I]t was Donald Trump’s name on the ballot and his calls for economic patriotism, border security, and an end to imperial wars that brought out the throngs. …

Undeniably, a Trump presidency would mean an end to the Bush and establishment policies on trade, immigration and intervention. …

What is conservative about uncontrolled borders? …

Could they not see that, as we celebrated globalization, Beijing and Tokyo were practicing ruthless mercantilism and protectionism? …

At the end of the Cold War in 1991 … the establishment opted for empire, for expanding old alliances, dumping over regimes, crusading for democracy, sending our soldiers out to remake Third World countries in the image of Iowa and Vermont. Who now thinks all these wars were worth the cost?

… the returns from the primaries look like the passing of the old order, the death rattle of an establishment fighting for its life, and being laughed at and mocked as it goes down. As in 1964 and 1980, a new Republican Party is taking shape.
