Are Republicans fighting the wrong war?

In Part 2 of INSIDE THE WIRE, Bill Walton sits down with Wade Miller of the Center for Renewing America to examine why conservative political victories have not always translated into cultural victories—and why the real battle for America may be happening far beyond Congress.

Miller argues that too many Republicans still focus primarily on traditional policy goals like taxes, spending, regulation, and legislation, while the deeper struggle is unfolding across culture, faith, immigration, national identity, education, institutions, and the future of Western civilization.

The conversation asks a difficult question:

What happens if conservatives keep winning elections but continue losing the culture?

Bill Walton and Wade Miller discuss the limits of electoral politics, the future of the Republican Party, the role of Christianity and faith in American life, border security and immigration, DEI and institutional ideology, China and foreign influence, Donald Trump’s impact on the conservative movement, and why preserving Western civilization may require a much broader strategy than simply electing better politicians.

INSIDE THE WIRE — PART 2: FIGHTING THE WRONG WAR?

If you care about the future of the conservative movement, American culture, national sovereignty, faith, and Western civilization, this is a conversation worth hearing.
