Very few people have shaped modern conservatism like Newt Gingrich, and even fewer are still shaping it today. In our conversation, we explore the ideas behind his latest book, Trump’s Triumph, and how they connect to the larger conservative movement. 

From the legacy of the Contract With America to the future of entrepreneurial government, we discuss what it takes to govern in today’s political climate, and why Gingrich believes leadership, innovation, and cultural engagement will define the next generation of conservative policy.

Key Takeaways:

• How conservatism has evolved since the 1990s and where it might be headed next


• The difference between campaigning and governing (and why it matters now more than ever)


• Why Newt Gingrich believes “entrepreneurial government” is essential to America’s future


• The role of education, AI, and values in shaping the next generation of conservative leaders
