Notes on Trump/MAGA 2024

Matthew N Lyons

Even more than in the past, Trump and the MAGA movement have brought key elements of fascist politics into the Republican Party, and a second Trump presidency is likely to be significantly more authoritarian than the first one.

Calling them “alt-right” helps us fight them

If “alt-right” is a benign-sounding label to hide white supremacist ideology, why do so many alt-rightists go out of their way to sound as shockingly bigoted as possible?  There’s a campaign among Trump opponents to
