    Can someone explain the difference between someobe who is far right and a libertarian? What is the difference between far right and a constitutionist? What is the difference between far right supporting individual freedoms?

          It’s one thing to want smaller government. It’s another to want to completely shut down core function of the government. This quote shows that he want to do the latter and I think it clearly illustrates why you would call him “extreme” right wing:

          The president-elect also announced that public works would be “cut down to zero” and those already in progress would be put out to tender so that “there would be no more state spending”.

          Public works includes roads and other such infrastructure work. He isn’t saying shrink. He’s saying zero. Shutting down core public works is pretty damn far out there.

        The less government spending the more they can cut all people’s income tax. The more governemt programs people want, the more moeny they must cut out ofyour pay.

        I will not listen to any criticisms of businesses from anyone who has not experienced what is required of an owner in order to have the previlage to pay someone to work for them fulltime, and then they can demand more government regulations.

      Imo labels are so overused sometimes that they become useless, or worse than useless.
