The thing is that the neo-conservatives don't get what they want - they instead change their stances depending on what the cult-figures want.

For instance, before Trump republicans were open to free-trade, if you were to ask them about it they'd be like "yeah free trade is very good we always supported it", but after Trump, asking the same question would result in "protectionism is so much better and we always supported it".

Almost as if they look at the elites for their opinions, rather than forming their own.

Has a real Orwellian vibe to it.
