Is there a distinction between the agenda of the racist alt-right and the Republican Party ?

The alt-right is protectionist and anti free trade, as well as being opposed to the foreign policy both sides have been pushing. So they differ on that.

@CaptainCanadia But their leader , and President , is also protectionist and anti-free trade and was also (until last night) anti-interventionist. America first ?

@RodionRomanovitch Well Trump was elected as an outsider. He didn't have the support of the party machinery. The party and Trump are different entities.

That said his policies are confused and contradictory. What he says and what he doesn't aren't gonna line up. So he's walking back a few things, particularly since he recognized that war helps his popularity.
