They existed before Trump with the tea party, they will exist after him. The far right also exists in other countries

it depends. I think MAGA as it is today, would stop existing if trump stopped existing, it would probably fracture into a few different camps, completely killing any momentum it has.

Right, not centrist. They just aren’t as right as the competition

you’ll have to demonstrate this one “freedom and liberty” are some of the most right leaning things they talk about. The only thing they aren’t doing is social progressivism, which from a federal perspective i think is relatively appropriate.

Not a left or right issue, you will find people on both supporting both sides

i don’t fundamentally disagree here, but i’m talking about a specific camp of people, so it’s relevant. Right leaning people are more likely to support israel, especially farther right people. Even moderately religious people will generally back israel. The primary camp of pro palestine is younger college aged people. There’s a reason you don’t see very many senior citizen homes protesting israel palestine.

This has never been the case, the lack of cohesion is why right wing governments are more popular despite not being popular in a population. People will just not vote because there is no coheson on the left. Meanwhile the right will always come out to vote, even when they don’t agree with their candidate

it depends on how you view it. Ideologically the right tends to be more cohesive. Their views and ideas are more malleable. However the left is more socially cohesive, and given the current climate, i would expect the vast majority of the left to vote for kamala on the basis of it being “not trump” and also a pretty good shot at getting something other than an old white fuck into the government.

this was a weirdly bad faith interpretation of my comment, honestly.

Just more Keynesian economics, privatize profits and socialize losses. Pro-globalization

Muslims tend to be against Israel

Ideologically the right tends to be more cohesive. Their views and ideas are more malleable.

There are some that don’t support trans-rights despite it being a conservative stance. Some believe the government should intervene to protect the climate while others think it should be on the companies. You’ll even find some that are socialists when it benefits them (Trump campaigns left of Harris economically occasionally even if he flips to the opposite side the next time he speaks). Others are straight up communists (libertarians/anarchists)
