Trump's win forces global right-wing politics to pick new direction

This weeks triumph of Donald Trump marks a turning-point for global conservative politics‚ while liberal elites keep ignoring regular peoples opinions. The impact of this event will need time to sink in – especially for Labour party which seems out-of-touch with todays realities

The post-Cold War conservative ideas (focused on free-markets globalization and open borders) are giving way to a fresh national-conservative movement. This new approach puts emphasis on:

  • protecting national borders
  • preserving cultural identity
  • supporting local communities
  • realistic foreign policy
  • social traditional values

Different countries show various forms of this shift: Hungary Poland and Italy already embraced it while France Germany and Sweden have new right-wing parties challenging old ones. Britain sits somewhere in-between after Brexit created temporary changes but 2019-24 Conservative party didnt fully commit to these ideas

Trumpʼs new victory brings significant advantages: he wont face EU-style restrictions can overcome deep-state resistance and has support from ex-Democrats like Elon Musk and Tulsi Gabbard (who represent political re-alignment). With JD Vance helping explain his ideas Trumpʼs quick actions could show what national conservatism can achieve

British conservatives must accept this new reality instead of holding onto pre-2016 politics; its time to tap into this movement while avoiding too much economic-protectionism. Though Trumps tariff policies raise questions – remember EU has similar 5% external tariffs; plus Musks plan to cut federal bureaucracy and stop Net-Zero policies could boost US productivity

The voter base supporting old policies is shrinking fast; the choice lies between leftist post-modernism or returning to Western civilizations core values – national identity borders and economic growth
