If Harris had won, she wouldn't have sent ice to invade cities and kidnap people. She wouldn't have hugely increased tariffs, etc. see also putting political minders at network news places as part of federal sales approvals.

Or threatened invasions against EU territories? No way anyone was predicting that.

His policy will not work. You cannot pivot America into a second-sector economy while denying China the third sector. Macro 101 stuff: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_sector
America has two options; either become the slave of China and enter our century of humiliation, or deny Chinese access to free trade by competing in market economics. Protectionism does not balance America's trade deficits, and US citizens cannot compete against Mexican labor (let alone Chinese prison labor). The economics of it genuinely don't get any simpler than this; American manufacturing will be for naught if we cannot compete in a free market. We already have a successfully financialized economy, throwing out Reaganomics for an even more shit deal is peak neoreactionary nonsense.

History has a word for people that supported Hitler's economic policies but disapproved of his social policies.

Not supporting him in any way, shape or form.
Just not surprised by his policies.
He was quite vocal about them during his campaign.
Sure, the election of a convict was a risky bet, but the appearance of the policies he is pushing was really not.
