AFPI President and CEO Greg Sindelar Participates in Oxford Union Debate

Greg Sindelar June 4, 2026

OXFORD, England – Today, the Oxford Union, the world’s most storied debating society, hosted a formal debate on the motion “This House Believes Trump Has Betrayed Conservatism.” The debate asked whether President Trump has abandoned conservative principles or remade conservatism for a new age. Greg Sindelar, Interim President and CEO of the America First Policy Institute and President of the Texas Public Policy Foundation, spoke in opposition to the motion. Other debaters included:

  • Michael Knowles – Host of the Michael Knowles Show, Daily Wire
  • Allan Lichtman – American Historian & Political Analyst

Reflecting on the opportunity, Sindelar commented:

I was honored to take the floor of the Oxford Union alongside Michael Knowles and Allan Lichtman. and make the case that far from betraying conservatism, President Trump has returned it to its rightful owners: the American people. Conservatism exists to conserve a nation and its people, rather than to serve the comfort of political insiders. President Trump put those principles back to work for the American people, and the results speak for themselves.
