What sparked the MAGA civil war when Tucker Carlson platformed Nick Fuentes?

Tara Palmeri sits down with Richard Hanania, a former white nationalist turned MAGA skeptic and author at richardhanania.substack.com, to dissect the GOP's internal fracture over white nationalism's rise. From Trump's 2015 elevator speech to dinner with Fuentes at Mar-a-Lago, Hanania traces how anti-immigration dog whistles invited extremists preaching America for "heritage" whites only, reshaping influencers like Charlie Kirk and policy on H-1B visas. They explore plausible deniability's collapse, JD Vance's family vulnerabilities in 2028 primaries, tech elites' online radicalization, and whether ethno-populism now defines the party post-Trump—plus parallels to Europe's immigration backlash and the left's brewing moderation.

How deep has white nationalism infiltrated the Republican Party, and who wins the post-Trump fight?
