Professor Berman makes very good points about the public moderation of Europe's hard right partiers, as well as the mistake of attaching the label of fascism when it does not apply. However, she omits from her analysis the two one-party illiberal democracies in Europe - Poland and Hungary - that have become role models of sorts for the Republican Party and other right-wing parties in Europe. She also seems to believe that what happens in the U.S. wouldn't affect the dynamic in western Europe that she has described. If we ever get a second Trump Administration, you could expect its foreign policy to be very focused on undermining democracies that could provide a counter-example to its authoritarianism. Lastly, the European right may have moderated its rhetoric and image, but that is all appearances. They have gotten better at the dog-whistles the U.S. right has deployed for decades. These newly born lambs are still wolves under that clothing.
