it's easy, things that I think are "harmful as gently caress" are right wing. Things I like are leftwing. This is how an adult sees the world.

more precisely, it would only be good in the long run if it failed spectacularly, whcih it very well might, but it also might not, because the most insane people with the most guns in the US are all right-wing militias, and historically speaking, armed dudes tend to get their way.

trump's rightwing populism gives lip service to protectionist pro-worker trade policies, but it's just lip service

rightwing populism is a delusional belief that workers will be empowered by giving more power to private, unaccountable, completely undemocratic power structures and doing away with nominally democratic systems of governance

rightwing populism is basically falling for anti-worker pro-business propaganda

This is true, but is remarkably similiar to neo-liberal policies as well.

Though I don't think the great masses of the people in conservative states are clamoring for additional tax credits for wal-mart.

when you poll non-rich republican voters, they want greater investment in social welfare programs and higher taxes for the wealthy

however, the rightwing populist rhetoric is to just remove taxes entirely from everyone (including the wealthy) or make it very low instead of tax credits while gutting/privatizing "entitlement spending"
