The far right is currently animated by several themes, many of them interrelated, including gender, sexuality, and reproductive rights.

Trump 's appointments have also been gifts to his far right base, writes Julian Zelizer .

Zelizer : Trump has different faces: the tax-cutting businessman, the international negotiator, the authoritarian strongman, and the xenophobe.

The armed militia movement is having a mild revival after a massive Facebook deplatforming in 2020 .

A new wave of swastika-waving neo-Nazis has emerged, too.

The most effective strategies against the far right have been lawsuits, writes Julian Zelizer .

The next four years will likely be an environment where far right individuals and groups can be fully activated and function as Trump 's foot soldiers.
