Trumpism is a right-wing political movement based on the ideology of United States president Donald Trump, a very active member of the Republican Party. The Trumpist faction of the Republican Party, the Freedom Caucus, has become the largest faction in the federal Republican Party.[1][2]

Trumpism is a right-wing ideology that is heavily influenced by national conservatism,[3] right-wing populism[4][5][6] and social conservatism.[7][8][9] It has also been described as Americanist,[10] Christian rightist,[11][12] illiberal, isolationist,[13] libertarian,[14] nationalist,[15][16] protectionist,[17][18] and semi-authoritarian.[19][20]

Many foreign right-wing politicians have been described as their country's version of Trump or who have been major allies of Trump. These include Argentina's Javier Milei,[21][22] Australia's Pauline Hanson[23][24] and Clive Palmer,[25] Brazil's Jair Bolsonaro,[26][27] France's Marine Le Pen,[28] Hungary's Viktor Orbán,[29][30][31] Italy's Silvio Berlusconi[32] and Giorgia Meloni,[33][34][35] Japan's Shinzo Abe,[36] the Netherlands' Geert Wilders[37][38][39][40] and the United Kingdom's Nigel Farage.[41]

During the lead-up to the 45th Canadian federal election, the Liberal government of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau compared the Conservative opposition to the Republican Party and the MAGA movement[42] and compared Opposition Leader Pierre Poilievre to Trump.[43]
