Mr. Trump actually represents a body of thought, and to understand that, one has to look deeper into Mr. Bannon’s thinking. Alt-Right, a white nationalist political insurgency, is known for its exclusivist attitude towards other races, misogyny, political incorrectness, and protectionist economic philosophy. If Mr. Modi emphasises on Hindu nationalism, Mr. Erdogan banks on Turko-Islamic nationalism for support. Mr. Bannon wants white cultural nationalism in the U.S. The cultural nationalist state of Mr. Bannon, however, is not a free-market state like Mr. Modi’s India or Mr. Erdogan’s Turkey.
