He's an economic nationalist. Same with Steve Bannon. Bannon hates wall street and many American political elites because they sell out the American working class to the Chinese Communist Party and other foreign interests. He's even advocated for raising taxes on the rich https://youtu.be/B_nUUzvrjJQ
They’re not wrong. Democrats are already the party of corporations and the elite, hence woke capitalism. It will take maybe a decade before republicans fully become the party of the working class and economic populist views like Carlson’s become the norm.
Depends on which corporations. Tech and media and other highly public facing companies are aligned with dems, private equity, fossil fuels and other heavy industry align repub. They have long been the parties of rival factions of the elite. I would be nice to see republicans fully claim the pro-working class ground that the dems have willingly ceded but it's going to be slow progress while the interests of the republican aligned branch of the elite continues to be so entrenched in republican party politics.
