Fun fact: the Democratic Party has pumped out a platform every election since 1840, the Republicans have one for every election from 1856 and 2016, and literally every third party to win a single electoral vote since 1860 has one available here. This is the first time a major party has foregone it.
In lieu of one, Trump has decided to release this bullet point list of goals for his second term.
In essence, the Republican Party has decided that its 'platform' is a cult of personality.
