Trump is the leader scared 'New Right' that is afraid of immigrants

Donald Trump is unique and self-assured. He is the dominant political force in the New Right movement that is out to disorganise the world. The US President’s behaviour inspired some Europeans, calling themselves ‘Patriots for Europe’, whose agenda is to ‘Make Europe Great Again’, similar to Trump’s Make America Great Again. One of Trump’s pet projects is to repossess the Panama Canal and annex Canada. He is not the first American official to express such imperialistic desires.

The impression that the existence of Canada is a geopolitical anomaly can be traced to the War of 1812 between the US and Britain with its two unexpected outcomes; a hero in Andrew Jackson and a national anthem. As president, Jackson popularised democracy for white men and had an ‘ass’ as symbol of the Democratic Party. Trump may be like Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt in being bombastic and attention seeking. A warmonger partially responsible for the war against Spain, Roosevelt grabbed Panama from Columbia, built a canal to link the Pacific and the Atlantic, and then boasted of what he had done and let Congress debate it. He was also an environmentalist, earned a Nobel for making Russo-Japanese peace, and was an adventurer who visited East Africa after his presidency in 1909 and urged white settlers to turn Kenya into ‘White Man’s Country’. Like Roosevelt, Trump wants a Nobel and so he struggles to make a Russo-Ukraine peace.

Trump’s desire for Russo-Ukraine peace while giving Israel a free hand to beat Palestinians in Gaza has disappointed Europeans who are hard on Russia and question Israel’s activities in Gaza. They dare not, however, push Trump despite the number of annoying things that he does. Except for Hungary’s Victor Oban, claiming that Trump’s success made the New Right to be ‘mainstream', Europeans are forced to rethink security beyond hemming the Russians as suggested by Halford Mackinder and George Kennan. For them, especially the growing New Right movement, security is in keeping the ethnic purity of the Europeans from immigrant contamination.

The New Right wants to reorganise world governance and identifies with Trump in removing immigrants from their midst. This is in order to stop what they call ‘replacement’ of Europeans by foreigners from mostly Middle East and Africa. In a meeting of European leaders of the New Right in Madrid, Spain, there was even a call for a fresh ‘Reconquista’, reminiscent of the 15th Century expulsion of the Moslems from Europe.

Britain, the once global empire, and its cultural and ideological extension in the United States, is the most infiltrated by the immigrants. In Britain, the offending immigrants penetrate the system so well that they become Prime Minister, ministers and leaders of major political parties. Britain, Canada, and the United States seemingly let colonial subjects penetrate the imperial ‘headquarters’ so much that they become president, ministers or cabinet secretaries, and ambassadors. Trump and the New Right would like to reverse this trend in order to keep the Conceptual West racially and religiously pure, meaning white and culturally Euro-Christian.

To create a different international system stressing racial sovereignty, the New Right might replicate late 15th Century Europe in committing atrocities. With the skin colour, not cultural attributes that keep changing, as the only uniting ‘tradition’ for the New Right to uphold, committing atrocities will become normal. Kicking immigrants out of the West would be followed by knowledge destruction to force collective amnesia. Reviving purported Euro ‘traditions’ would de-nationalise targeted ‘immigrants’ irrespective of the number of generations that have lived in particular places. Trump has expressed desire to tinker with the 14th Amendment to the US Constitution on citizenship.

Trump, the man of the moment, symbolises fear that the West is losing importance. Fear manifests itself in the New Right’s blame on migrants and the existing order for Euro misfortunes. Trump emerges as the ‘Moses’ of the scared New Right.
