Restoring America is running a new kind of think tank series, “The Right Way Forward,” which does not ask conservatives to speak as a chorus but to argue in earnest.Beginning the week of May 11, leading conservative think tanks will square off in the first of four debates that will tackle the defining questions of the post-Trump conservative movement.
