    I'm wondering what free-market Republicans are thinking these days. It seems clear, now, that the GOP coalition that Wm. F. Buckley, Jr., helped define--Christians, Chicago School, no John Birch--either never existed or is gone. 1/

        Yes, you can get tax cuts and fewer government programs. But it is at a profound cost. There is no robust internal check on precisely the kind of autocracy Hayek warned us about. Do you close your eyes and hope it all goes back post-Trump? 2/

        At what point do you realize that--right or wrong--there just isn't a real pro-market party in the U.S? That your views are irrelevant politically? How long do you stick with the GOP, knowing you will get a lot of white nationalism, anti-trade, presidential winner-picking? 3/

        If the choice is to pick the lesser of two anti-market parties and stay with the GOP, why? Are tax cuts and lower regs worth destroying a global trading system and creating precedent for explicit cronyism and a President who intervenes in private market decisions? 4/

        I know there is a heroic story for pro-market folks, about the years in the wilderness in the 1960s followed by triumph in the 1980s. But doesn't this moment re-cast that narrative more darkly? Dare I say it: isn't, even, Keynes better than Trump? 5/

        I know some have chosen to be anti-Trump and--with greater enthusiasm--anti-anti-Trump, making fun of the libs and their hysteria. That strikes me as a dodge. Eager to hear thoughts @EconTalker @JohnHCochrane

        Of course, this is not entirely new. The racist Southern Strategy and Willie Horton and dog whistles and on and on. But free-marketeers once could persuade themselves they were the heart of the party, using the hicks for electoral gain. Now it's the other way round. END

        I was recently reading Norman Mailer’s essay about debating Buckley Jr in the early ‘60s and it struck me that this movement has kind of always been a nonsensical ideology wrapped in faux intellectualism...and now without the intellectualism it is truly revealed for what it is.

        Oh, we've jettisoned the intellectualism, that's for sure. There is literally no coherent philosophy or idea coming from Trump, and the GOP is 100% ok with that. Even his denouncers like Flake, etc still vote for his policies.

        Now, they are a combo of the John Birch Society and the Confederacy.

        What does the GOP represent at this point? The free-market, libertarian, beacon of democracy strain seems dead. Is it just now the anti-intellectual, racist, populism of Trump? It is hard to see how it survives if Trump is fingered by Mueller
