I do laugh whenever I see Yerpeein politicians described as "far-right" when they'd be Democrats here.
Which ones, LePen, Farage, Orban, the leaders of Lega, Golden Dawn, Jobbik, Vlaams B, PVV, AfD, FPÖ?
Mostly thinking le pen. Shes pro tariff, pro bank nationalization, pro "profits tax", pro monetizing debt, anti privatization, pro ag subsidies, anti nuclear energy, etc. Its not unusual for certain stripes of people on the left to want immigration controls. If le pen was a republican here she would never survive a primary unless she lived in some weird district that was only voting for the niche issue. Shes more George Wallace than George W Bush. Not saying shes a perfect fit for the democrats but I think that if someone with identical positions were to hold elected office here it would be as a democrat.
