Donald Trump has been treated as an outlier among conservative politicians by voters, the media, and politicians because of his behavior. While some have argued that Trump represents a chaotic break with conservative thought, Grossberg argues that Trumpu2019s tactics are a continuation of the struggle between the new right and the reactionary right.
Although Trumpu2019s tactics are part of a longer arc of conservatism in the United States, the reactionary right has been legitimized like never before in U.S. history. The legitimization of the reactionary right has altered contemporary political struggles and subjected those struggles to a changing national landscape of moods and feelings, marked by a growing absolutism of judgement and belief, and new forms of anxiety, alienation, and narcissism. Grossberg interrogates the intellectual arguments for the reactionary right and lays out a possible future: a cultural nationalism governed by a popular corporatocracy.
