To understand those differences, Jeffrey Engel, a presidential historian at Southern Methodist University, said you have to go back a bit further, to 1964. That year, he explains, the South began to flip from being a Democratic stronghold to becoming the heartland of Republican politics. “Ronald Reagan was in favor of immigration. There’s just no other way to put it,” Engel said. “He actually thought people who came to this country, even those without proper documentation, were the best of America because those are the people that really want to be there. … It’s just an incredible 180 degree difference from where the party is today.”
He said people want to vote for the optimistic candidate talking about the future, not the angry candidate talking about how things were better in the past. Trump’s negativity of the country might rile up his base, but Engel doesn’t think it will motivate enough people for him to secure the presidency.Yet, there’s next-to-no criticism coming out of the Republican Party about Trump. Those who do criticize him are essentially banished from Republican politics.
“Part of Reagan’s great political achievement was to bring together all kinds of Republicans," Wilson said. “They were all under the Republican tent at that time and were able to get along reasonably well. Fast forward to today, and of course, we have a different situation.”
