Wikipedia has a Trumpism entry.
Ideology
Trumpism started its development predominately in Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. It denotes a populist political method that suggests nationalistic answers to complex political, economic and social problems and is intended to mobilize the disenfranchised[citation needed] of the growing social inequality, with stated opposition to the established political establishment.[vague] Ideologically, it has a right-wing populist accent,[3] whereby Trump's political style also shows traits of authoritarianism.[4]if I had to guess, I'd guess that an idiot wrote that. My favorite turn of phrase was 'established political establishment'. I also appreciated the misuse of the word "whereby".

Party platform documents haven’t been relevant for decades.
The reason to vote heavily for Biden is a last ditch effort to save the Republican Party.

The Republican party is in the best shape it's been in in years. You just want the Country Club republicans who whisper sweet nothings to conservatives and then crawl in bed with the democrats to be back in charge of the Republican party.
People can conjure up in their minds all kinds of "reasons" to justify something. But the only real reason to ever vote for Biden is A. You're a moron, or B. You are an enemy of the State. For that matter, that applies to voting for ANY democrat.

@jon-nyc So to be clear, you reject my characterization of your stance against Trumpism as having mostly to do with personal dislike, because your dislike is coincidental to what really matters, which is policy?
"Trumpism" is an interesting word because it presupposes there is a system there that must be defeated, rather than an individual man. But people who use that word are only interested in defeating the individual. The word itself is a head-fake.

Yes. The Left can't function without labeling everything. Everything they do is designed to divide. Separate it out, put a label on it, stuff it into a box and then attack the label.

I think the thing for the undecided voted to do, is ask themselves what the country would look like after four years of Biden. Or the more likely scenario of a years of Biden and three years of Harris.
Californication of the country would be the least harm that could happen...
So, what would the country look like after four more years of Trump?

That's pretty much what I'm trying to map. But if my tentative position right now is, "at least under Trump it'll keep militant liberals from becoming much more emboldened, and prevent having what happened at Evergreen happen in more places," I want to make sure I'm not being a doofus about that. Because Trump's an a-hole and while I might admit to reality being more complicated than that, I'm not willing to believe that he isn't an a-hole. (Also doesn't discount Biden being one, too.)

Somewhat related...so much for the colorblind society. All these DNC platform positions that are race-based is so...racist.
Look at how tens of millions whites are in poverty yet just because the color of their skin, in many cases they will not benefit from these DNC positions.

I think we're no longer in a situation in which we can discuss this. I think we're in a situation in which your white maleness exempts you from being allowed to have any opinion, for or against, on these issues. In the eyes of a large part of the left, anyway. I think it's important to know what kind of opposition we're dealing with. We're very, very far from "ask not what your country can do for you."
