I honestly believe that the difference maker in getting Trump re-elected and breaking the stranglehold of the entrenched and corrupt was Musk buying Twitter.
Not just what it did for that platform. Also for exposing the government pressure shenanigans and greasing the skids for other tech titans to red-pill (to varying degrees).
The problem in Europe is that they already have well-established legal curbs to speech. Here, you can expose the issue and hold it up to 1A. There is no 1A in Europe.

Yeah because Biden, the IC and US DOS took down all the non globalist nations and were desperately working on Russia using Ukraine as a leverage point.

I think you misread French elections and politics. If you think LePen is conservative or nationalist by US or even British metrics you are very mistaken. LePen is right wing in the sense that Labour in Britain has traditionally had a few "sane" policies.
The French elections were over Macron basically telling the far left that they could not have all of the goodies they wanted. So instead of a family pack of Oreos they are getting the next size down. Le Pen does not care about the Oreos , she might even want the next size down or maybe the family size. It's that it hurts Macron's governing coalition on the Assembly .
National Front is socialist lite by our standards. The only true right wing position that they have is on immigration and there is very little difference between her and Macron on the issue.

Milei is great, so is Bukele in El Salvador. I don’t consider LATAM to be Western culturally

All European far right wing parties are to the left of Democrats on most issues.

Argentina is kicking arse with a right wing president. Check it out. He's doing an amazing job. Completely turned that country around.

This is semantics - but interesting imo.
I think from a European perspective the current Administration is right-wing solely because the Administration is "nationalist." That is what "right-wing" means to Europeans. They have spent the entire post WW2 era pushing the idea of integration as a way to achieve peace and prosperity as a way of leaving behind the nationalist ideas that plunged them into war in the first half of last century.
But from an American perspective i do not think the current Administration is rightly described as "right wing." Many things Trump and a some others say and push are things the Left was behind a generation or two ago - or at least the pre-Clinton Left. Reciprocal trade deals and tariffs, U.S. treasure staying at home as opposed to nation building, limitations on U.S. police power, dismantling/major reform of intelligence, etc. are a few elements that liberals were largely behind.
Some of those have roots in American conservatism for sure - it just seems odd to me to call them right wing today, but like I say - it is just semantics.

I don't believe Milei is far-right. Maybe he is considered that because of how the whole left-right scale has been bastardized, but he is the only libertarian head of state in the world.

According to Benz. USAID, CISA, NED, etc are responsible for overthrowing every populist/nationalist movement around the globe since 2017.
Now that those groups are temporarily neutered it will be interesting to see what happens in EU and S America the next 5 years.
With an even playing field will we see the woke mind virus exterminated?

Both are disgraces and we should pay them no attention.
