Conservatism Looking Backwards To Go Forward Against The Populist Tide

In this episode of Firing Lane, Croaky Caiman takes on the myth that not voting for either major candidate is a betrayal of conservatism. Diving deep into the core principles of the New Federalist movement, Croaky dismantles the shallow arguments of populism and electoral tribalism. With his signature wit, he explores why true conservatism values moral order, personal responsibility, and a long-term cultural strategy over short-term electoral wins. Rejecting both Trumpism and Harris, this episode challenges listeners to think beyond the ballot box and focus on rebuilding conservatism from its intellectual foundations. Tune in for a thoughtful, principle-driven conversation on the future of conservatism.
