ROME — The favorite to be Italy’s next prime minister has rocketed almost from out of nowhere.

 

Her party, until recently, was on the fringes. She was overlooked for years by Italy’s male-dominated political class. She is an unmarried mother with a heavy Roman accent, always casual and blunt, gesturing with hands to the sky, lambasting “woke ideology” and cancel culture.

By any account, Giorgia Meloni’s rise is astonishing. In a matter of weeks, if all goes as expected, she stands to become Italy’s first female leader. She’s also set a benchmark for a far-right politician in Western Europe, earning a level of power that’s been out of reach for her counterparts in Germany and France, and doing so even after the forces propelling nationalism on the continent — a migration backlash and Euroskepticism — have waned.

But Meloni’s profile is distinctive, as is the path she’s found for political success.

She’s being lambasted with the same sorts of pejoratives that are used to slander Orban in Hungary.  What she isn’t is left or left of center, and that has all the leftists in a fury of hate, the same way Trump elicited such hate in the US from the left.

Far Right Politician?

If she had been on the left side at the same level, MSN would have called her a wise progressive.

I display the Confederate Battle Flag in honor of my great great great grandfathers who spilled blood at Wilson's Creek and Shiloh.  5 others served in the WBTS with honor too.
