Right-wing extremism often appeals to disenfranchised workers by exploiting their economic grievances and sense of lost status or privilege. Some key connections include:

• Scapegoating immigrants, minorities, and women for perceived job losses and economic hardship, promoting nativist and anti-feminist ideologies.[1][2]

• Promoting the idea that the "system" is rigged against the traditional working class by elites, minorities, and progressives who have taken away their rightful status and opportunities.[1] This breeds a sense of "aggrieved entitlement."[1]

• Offering a nostalgic vision of restoring traditional social hierarchies, order, and the primacy of the native working class.[1][3]

• Exploiting economic anxiety and blaming globalization, free trade, and liberal policies for the decline of manufacturing and blue-collar jobs.[2][4]

• Appealing to disillusioned workers by rejecting the political establishment and positioning the far-right as the true voice for the "forgotten" working class.[3][4]

So while not necessarily a core tenet, right-wing extremism has proven adept at channeling the economic frustrations of disenfranchised workers into a broader agenda of nationalism, racism, xenophobia, and anti-feminism.[1][2][4]

There are several potential reasons behind Donald Trump's popularity among some voters, according to the search results:

1. Trump is seen as a populist revolt against the political establishment, appealing to voters dissatisfied with traditional party leaders.[1]

2. Trump's brash and outspoken personality, along with his reality TV experience, has made him a media phenomenon and given him an authoritarian aura that resonates with some voters who desire a strong leader.[1]

3. Trump's supporters tend to score higher on measures of authoritarianism and fear of terrorism, making his promises of strength and security appealing.[1]

4. Trump's popularity has risen among certain groups like Black, Latino, young, and working-class voters, potentially due to a quieter campaign approach, less media attention, and a tuned-out public compared to previous cycles.[2]

5. Economic insecurity and a sense of being left behind by political elites have driven some white working-class voters to embrace Trump's populist message, despite his authoritarian tendencies.[5]

6. Trump's unwavering base remains loyal to him, with the vast majority of his 2020 voters still supporting him in 2024, potentially due to a rejection of democratic norms and a belief in his unsubstantiated claims of election fraud.[4][5]

In summary, a combination of anti-establishment sentiment, Trump's persona, authoritarian tendencies resonating with some, economic anxieties, and an unwavering base seem to underlie his enduring popularity among certain segments of voters.[1][2][4][5]
