“Trees cause more pollution than cars.” Ronald Reagan, 1981. Just in time for the 2016 election! With every great social issue America has faced: slavery, women’s suffrage, desegregation, the environment, interracial marriage, one side has always been wrong: the conservatives. Drawing from the Congressional record, the media, and the campaign trail, this book examines American conservatism in its own words. You’ll see how the beliefs and policies of yesterday’s conservatives sound odious and shameful to us now. You’ll also see the dark undercurrent of violence that has always accompanied protecting wealth and power. You get a powerful argument about how ignorant and vile future Americans will see this election year’s conservatives like Donald Trump and Ted Cruz.
