The Godfather of the Woke Right
A 2011 book by Pat Buchanan shows the deep roots of today’s right-wing illiberalism.
Of the innumerable insults directed at Donald Trump and his supporters, the one that seems to get under their skin the most is “woke right.” The epithet describes the Trump movement’s tendency to counter left-wing illiberalism with a mirror-image replica. “The woke right,
