The article from Vox discusses the evolving landscape of American conservatism, particularly focusing on the influence of Donald Trump and Elon Musk. It explores how Trump's brand of populism has reshaped the Republican Party, moving away from traditional conservative tenets like free trade, limited government, and international alliances towards a more nationalist, protectionist, and populist approach. This shift has caused a rift within the conservative movement, with some traditional conservatives feeling alienated by Trump's style and policies. Meanwhile, Elon Musk, often seen as a libertarian figure, has also impacted conservative thought through his business ventures and outspoken views on free speech, innovation, and government regulation. The piece examines how these two figures, despite their differences, have both contributed to a redefinition of what conservatism might mean in the 21st century, highlighting a tension between old-school conservatism and the new populist wave, and questioning where the future of the conservative ideology might lie amidst these changes.
