The latest example of how so-called "riGhT-wiNg pOpuLiStS" are just neocons:
Far-right US Congressmen Jim Banks and Josh Hawley -- who insanely claim to be "working-class Republicans" -- boast of introducing legislation to send more weapons to Taiwan to wage a proxy war on China
When far-right Republicans absurdly claim they want to create a so-called "working-class GOP," they mean "send billions of dollars worth of weapons to Taiwan separatists and wage a proxy war on China in order to enrich the military-industrial complex and strengthen the US empire"
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis keeps showing how much of a neocon he is, fearmongering about Colombia's center-left President-elect Petro as a "totalitarian" "narco-terrorist Marxist"
People portraying DeSantis as "populist"/"libertarian" are useful idiots
Yet another example of how the attempt to portray far-right white-supremacist Fox News demagogue Tucker Carlson as "anti-war" is an absurd scam
Sure, he criticizes the Western war on Russia, but that's because he constantly pushes for war on China instead
The Bush-era neocons are ready to support Ron DeSantis if he runs for president.
Like them, DeSantis wants war with China, hates Venezuela and Cuba, and loves apartheid Israel.
The so-called "poPuLiSt riGhT" is just a rebranding of neoconservativism 2.0
Neoconservative Florida governor and likely US presidential candidate Ron DeSantis gave the position leading the state's only predominantly Black county to a man who wore the costume of white-supremacist terrorist organization the KKK to a Halloween party tallahassee.com
