"In the 1950s and early 1960s, most Sociologists believed that the era for ideologies had ended and was replaced by a rough consensus over political and social issues.  For this reason subsequent right wing movements were considered only to be episodical disruptions of American political life.  Therefore, the presence of the Radical Right was explained to be a fluctuating group of people protesting social change.  The groups would return to the consensus when it had adjusted to the transition.  This theory, referred to as “Status Politics,” is founded upon the assumption that Americans, preoccupied with their status, use politics to express their anxieties of moving up or down in their relative economic and social standings.  Expression usually takes the form of concern with moral decay or political subversion.  Basically, in this view the right wing was seen as fighting “modernity.”

"The Nationalist Movement is a Mississippi-founded white nationalist organization with headquarters in Georgia that advocates what it calls a "pro-majority" position. It has been called white supremacist by the Associated Press and Anti-Defamation League, among others.[1][2] Richard Barrett was succeeded by unanimous vote as leader by Thomas Reiter after Barrett's murder. Its Secretary originally was Barry Hackney, and the position of Secretary was discontinued by Thomas Reiter. Thomas Reiter saved most Nationalist Movement assets and intellectual property after Barrett's murder. The symbol of the movement is the Crosstar. In 2012 with the endorsement of Thomas Reiter, Travis Golie was sworn in as the Leader of The Nationalist Movement. Like Reiter, Golie was an original Barrett-era Nationalist Movement member. Golie returned The Nationalist Movement headquarters to the South where it originated."

"The Christian right, or the religious right, are Christian political factions that are characterized by their strong support of socially conservative policies. Christian conservatives seek to influence politics and public policy with their interpretation of the teachings of Christianity.[1]

In the United States, the Christian right is an informal coalition formed around a core of conservative evangelical Protestants and Roman Catholics.[2][3][4] The Christian right draws additional support from politically conservative mainline Protestants and members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.[2][5] The movement has its roots in American politics going back as far as the 1940s; it has been especially influential since the 1970s.[6][7] Its influence draws from grassroots activism as well as from focus on social issues and the ability to motivate the electorate around those issues.[8]

The Christian right is notable for advancing socially conservative positions on issues including school prayer, intelligent design, embryonic stem cell research,[9] homosexuality,[10] temperance,[11] euthanasia, contraception, Christian nationalism,[12] Sunday Sabbatarianism,[13] sex education, abortion,[14] and pornography.[15] Although the term Christian right is most commonly associated with politics in the United States, similar Christian conservative groups can be found in the political cultures of other Christian-majority nations."

When I'm talking about the New-Right or New-Rightists in America, I'm not talking about Barry Goldwater and the Constitutional, Conservative-Libertarian- or Classical-Conservative movement that he represents. 

So if you're a Conservative-Conservative, Conservative-Libertarian, or Classical-Conservative, you shouldn't be offended when I'm talking about the New-Right, or Far-Right, or Alt-Right, however you want to define Alt-Rightists or Ultra-Rightists in America, because I'm not talking about the Center-Right in America. (The real Conservatives) 

I'm talking about people who look at the world and politics, and America from a a very strict cultural, and fundamentalist viewpoint, who view people who don't share their values, who don't talk like them, who don't come from their part of America, who don't even look like them as traitors or invaders. I'm talking about Nationalists and Christian-Nationalists, Neo-Confederates in America, the Far-Right in America who gets called the New-Right, because they've only big an organized political force, really since the civil rights movement and Cultural Revolution in the 1960s, but have been in this country really since the founding of our American Republic.

"Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is an American media personality and businessman who served as the 45th president of the United States from 2017 to 2021.

Born and raised in Queens, New York City, Trump attended Fordham University for two years and received a bachelor's degree in economics from the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He became the president of his father Fred Trump's real estate business in 1971 and renamed it to The Trump Organization. Trump expanded the company's operations to building and renovating skyscrapers, hotels, casinos, and golf courses. He later started various side ventures, mostly by licensing his name. Trump and his businesses have been involved in more than 4,000 state and federal legal actions, including six bankruptcies. He owned the Miss Universe brand of beauty pageants from 1996 to 2015. From 2003 to 2015 he co-produced and hosted the reality television series The Apprentice.

Trump's political positions have been described as populist, protectionist, isolationist, and nationalist. He entered the 2016 presidential race as a Republican and was elected in an upset victory over Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton while losing the popular vote.[a] He became the first U.S. president without prior military or government service and became the oldest-serving president at the time of his inauguration. His election and policies sparked numerous protests. Trump made many false and misleading statements during his campaigns and presidency, to a degree unprecedented in American politics. Many of his comments and actions have been characterized as racially charged or racist."

"McCarthyism is the practice of making accusations of subversion or treason, especially when related to communism.[1] The term refers to U.S. senator Joseph McCarthy (R-Wisconsin) and has its origins in the period in the United States known as the Second Red Scare, lasting from the late 1940s through the 1950s.[2] It was characterized by heightened political repression and a campaign spreading fear of communist influence on American institutions and of espionage by Soviet agents.[2] After the mid-1950s, McCarthyism began to decline, mainly due to the gradual loss of public popularity and opposition from the U.S. Supreme Court led by Chief Justice Earl Warren.[3][4] The Warren Court made a series of rulings that helped bring an end to McCarthyism.[5][6][7]

What would become known as the McCarthy era began before McCarthy's rise to national fame. Following the First Red Scare, President Harry S. Truman signed an executive order in 1947 to screen federal employees for association with organizations deemed "totalitarian, fascist, communist, or subversive", or advocating "to alter the form of Government of the United States by unconstitutional means." In 1949, a high-level State Department official was convicted of perjury in a case of espionage, and the Soviet Union tested an atomic bomb. The Korean War started the next year, raising tensions in the United States. In a speech in February 1950, McCarthy presented a list of alleged members of the Communist Party USA working in the State Department, which attracted press attention. McCarthyism was published for the first time in late March of that year in The Christian Science Monitor, and in a political cartoon by Herblock in The Washington Post. The term has since taken on a broader meaning, describing the excesses of similar efforts. In the early 21st century, the term is used more generally to describe reckless, unsubstantiated accusations, and demagogic attacks on the character or patriotism of political adversaries."
