Summary

Donald Trump’s influence on global right-wing politics is waning as his association increasingly becomes a political liability.

In the UK, Nigel Farage’s popularity has dropped, with 53% of Reform Party supporters now viewing Trump unfavorably. This shift undermines Farage’s chances of political success.

Internationally, leaders like Canada’s Pierre Poilievre and Italy’s Giorgia Meloni are distancing themselves from Trump.

Meanwhile, Trump’s economic promises have faltered, with US growth forecasts down and stock markets struggling.

The fading appeal of Trumpism marks the end of his ideological hold on Westminster politics.

        They did not imply that there won’t be future elections; they suggested Trump believes there won’t be. It’s a pretty likely possibility, the man is a narcissist who idolizes autocrats
