America is divided as almost never before--with contesting political factions regarding themselves not as rivals but as enemies. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e And the frightening thing is that, in large part, they're right. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The Democratic Party has become the party of \"identity politics\"--and every one of those identities is defined against a unifying national heritage of patriotism, pride in America's past, and hope for a shared future. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Offering only antagonism based on group identity--whether race, sex, or something else--the Democrats look forward to imposing nationally what they have achieved in California: one-party rule in a lockdown nation, where the ruling class makes every decision and doles out benefits to favored groups. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Against them is a divided Republican Party. Gravely misunderstanding the opposition, old-style Republicans still seek bipartisanship and accommodation, wrongly assuming that Democrats care about playing by the tiresome old rules laid down in the Constitution and other fundamental charters of American liberty. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The new core of the Republican Party is the populists and nationalists, who are tired of losing. The party's only hope of victory, they are all that stand between the United States as we have traditionally understood it and a revolution--less dramatic in appearance but just as consequential as the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Michael Anton, the author of the most scathing, memorable, and quoted essay of the 2016 campaign season, \"The Flight 93 Election\"--which Rush Limbaugh called \"one of the greatest columns ever written\"--now explains in depth why the stakes have risen even higher. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Ranging across every hot-button political topic of our time--from immigration to nationalism to war--and informed by a profound understanding of classical and American political philosophy, \u003ci\u003eThe Stakes\u003c\/i\u003e will transform the way you view politics and America's future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Anton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1684510619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781684510610\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Regnery Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 500\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 5.80w x 1.60d","brand":"Michael Anton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44048864739583,"sku":"9781684510610","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3ae79dad-b7f4-4ca6-8113-2218b7793daa.jpg?v=1684998266","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-stakes-michael-anton-9781684510610","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
