'''The Tea Party''' was a political movement that was opposed to the [[File:Regulationism.png]] [[Regulationism|policies]] of [[File:Obamium.png]] [[Third Way|The Obama Administration]]. It had close ties to the [[File:RepubUS.png]] The GOP and was based off radical [[File:Fiscon.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism|fiscally conservative]] principals. The movement was divided between the more [[File:Libertarian.png]] [[Libertarianism|libertarian]] faction, represented by [[File:RonPaul.png]] [[Libertarian Conservatism|Ron Paul]] and the one tied closer to the [[File:Christianright.png]] [[Christian Theocracy|Christian Right]] within the Republican Party represented by [[File:Confem.png]] [[Conservative Feminism|Sarah Palin]]. The biggest dividing issue was foreign policy, with the former favoring a [[File:Isolation.png]] non-interventionist approach while the latter was much more [[File:Necon.png]] hawkish.
 
In 2016, billionaire and media personality [[File:TrumpismBlump.png]] [[Trumpism|Donald Trump]] ran for president as a candidate for the [[File:RepubUS.png]] [[Conservatism|Republican Party]]. He mainly focused on issues such as illegal immigration, [[File:Jihad.png]] [[Jihadism|Islamic terrorism]], political correctness, and reforming the federal government. Despite being very controversial with [[File:Mediastocracy_flair.png]] [[Mediacracy|The Media]] and [[File:Lib.png]] [[Liberalism|Liberals]], he also became popular with the party's voters. Trump won the primary and was nominated as the GOP's candidate for president, against [[File:Hillary.png]] [[Liberal Feminism|Hillary Clinton]]. In the general election, both candidates turned out to be generally unpopular with the public though Hillary was mostly favored to win, both by the media and polls. Trump won the election in a huge upset and became president on January 20th, 2017. In 2020, Trump lost re-election to [[File:Bidenism.png]] [[Social Liberalism|Joe Biden]]. With people citing his handling of COVID and the [[File:Blm.png]] [[Progressivism|BLM]] protests for why he lost, among other things.
