> the extreme right holds the Presidency
I strongly disagree with this statement.
The extreme right elected the President, clearly. Despite his rhetoric, Trump's actual positions are a very mixed bag.
- mikeash 9y agoI don't think he has any actual positions, aside from possibly being very positive on Russia. He just sort of says whatever comes to mind at any given moment, apparently based on whoever he last talked to. But he mostly talks to people on the extreme right. It's a weak hold, but it's a hold just the same.
- dragonwriter 9y agoTrump's actual policy actions are generally consistent with the “extreme right” label, though not all positions of the same extremist faction.
