Nope. The GOP was the same party in 68, they just got all those southern racist votes thanks to LBJ. It was Nixon and Watergate that gave Reagan and the conservatives their openning. The paradigm shifted in 80.

Dimwit Donny's ABC News town hall: Four Pinocchios, over and over again

https://www.washingtonpost.com/polit...er-over-again/

Outside of TrumpWorld, Donny isn't AT ALL prepared to answer even the most basic questions. Lie after lie after bald-faced lie.

I wonder if Trump thinks he could stand in the middle of the debate stage and shoot his opponent and not lose any voters?
