MAGA’s Dead. What’s Next?

Source: The American Conservative
by Andrew Day

“The conservative-populist movement that Trump summoned has dominated the American right for a decade, but when he leaves office three years hence, either something new will take its place or a period of incoherence will commence. Right-wingers in recent years have propounded several alternatives: Catholic ‘integralism,’ which seems unable to garner much support in our secular, erstwhile Protestant nation; ‘post-liberalism,’ an empty signifier and mere negation; white nationalism, a dead end; CEO-style monarchism, which Trumpism has in effect only further delegitimized (hence the ‘No Kings’ protests); and so on. This essay proposes and adumbrates a different ideology, which I believe could not only glue together a winning coalition but also guide responsible governance: right-liberalism.” (04/20/26)
