About this listen

In the first bonus episode of TrumpLand, we begin the story of the 2024 Republican presidential primary with the aftermath of the 2020 election. After Donald Trump left office, leaving behind a wrecked party and shaken country, the conservative movement had to figure out a new path forward. The parental rights movement, Christian Nationalists, and National Conservatives attempted to harness the backlash to the Black Lives Matter Movement and pandemic restrictions into a new conservative revolution, but with mixed results. Trump stormed back onto the scene in the 2022 midterms, but his endorsed candidates underperformed, leading many Republicans to call on the party to reject him in 2024. And as a bruised but defiant Trump launched his 2024 campaign, many pointed to a promising conservative alternative: Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.
