As Cas Mudde points out, while one might hope that the Tangerine Tyrant is discrediting the hard right across Europe, actually he may be the foil against which the European far right can present itself as reasonable & moderate.... which is why they have been quietly distancing themselves from the Whitehouse, which allows them to mask their extremism as conservatism (see for instance Giorgia Meloni in Italy).

"Netanyahu’s West Bank plan: annexation by law
Far-right Israeli government uses bureaucracy to cement takeover of Palestinian land"

Should we work with far right parties?

It's a question and a criticism that is often thrown at us. We are called anti-democratic for not working with parties who - by and large - won their seats in free and fair elections.

But democracy is more than the ballot box. It's working within and respecting the law, which these parties often do not. It's about being held to account by a free press, which the parties resist and suppress.

Trumpian Anti-Immigrant moves aren't as popular as they might used to have been.

Reform UK and Nigel Farage have nothing to offer BUT Spite.

“[UK FarRight political party - my edit] Reform UK Refuses to Explain Why Nigel Farage Met and Posed with Man Criminally Convicted for Violent Attack on Anti-Racism Meeting at a Church”

by Josiah Mortimer in The Byline Times on Substack

“ReformUK Ltd has repeatedly refused to provide any explanation to Byline Times for why its leader, Nigel Farage, met and posed for a photograph with a group of far-right activists including a man who went on to be criminally convicted for violently storming an anti-racism meeting at a church – an offence that took place two weeks before the picture was taken”
