"Reagan's Influence and Trump's Absence Shape Second GOP Debate"
TL;DR Summary
At the second GOP debate, candidates may invoke the name of former President Ronald Reagan, but his influence and policy positions have diminished in the age of Donald Trump. While Reagan was known for advocating smaller government, lower taxes, and free markets, the Republican Party has shifted towards protectionism and an "America First" foreign policy. Despite this shift, candidates are likely to mention Reagan during the debate, highlighting the divide between traditional conservatism and the Trump era.
