Neo liberal / laissez-faire applies to both major parties in the USA.

Although, it's certainly becoming less so with the GOP than the Democrats. IE: bailouts for farmers affected by their own tariffs, mass deportations which will affect business, etc.

Sure, and what ideological branch does a right winger who doesn't follow liberalism fall under?

Is a "right winger" who doesn't follow liberalism even a "right winger" at all, insofar as the term is used in modern US politics? Considering that without the central bird of liberalism there wouldn't be a need for the division into right and left wing. Maybe I'm off the mark, though?

Ooooh, it was a leading question. I gotcha.

I agree with you 100%.
