title = "Nietzsche, Trump, and the American Far Right",
abstract = "This chapter discusses Donald Trump and the American far right from the perspective of Friedrich Nietzsche{\textquoteright}s philosophy, which is the inspiration for right-wing ideologists behind Trump{\textquoteright}s ideology and politics. Trump adopts Nietzsche{\textquoteright}s perspectivism, the morality of ressentiment, and the search for superman. These elements of Nietzsche are the basis of ultra-Conservative political ideology in America and Republican politics. Their use of Nietzsche requires analysis. To what extent do far-right ideology and Trump abuse the thought of Nietzsche as a political philosopher? Is it correct to say that Nietzsche was a radical conservative? Finally, it is important to demonstrate that Nietzsche{\textquoteright}s philosophy differs from Trump{\textquoteright}s political ideology.",
