During my years as a GOP organizer and activist, I never really gave the alt-right much thought. In my time, the establishment neocons I worked with faced an entirely different threat: the Ron Paul crowd. You remember them, right? They had that “revolution/love” bumper-sticker thing going on, in their quest to divest the GOP from overseas adventures in nation-building and domestic exercises in government-growing.
I think there was something about auditing the Fed in there, too, but I never really paid much attention to their arguments beyond the whole “let’s stop droning Muslims” thing, which was a huge deal to me and my fellow neocons. Sure, we had to occasionally lie about how we were shocked, shocked, I tell you, at Obama’s “unlawful” droning program, but privately, that was one of the few things we actually liked about the guy. If we had a beef, it was that he wasn’t droning enough (because really, can you ever drone enough?).
