I'd say, however, that many working-class white conservatives are more populistic than they are right-wing. They might chant "stop the spending", but only have a vague understanding of the actual issue of austerity. However, the GOP has mastered the art of postwar propaganda (and has won the war on how the economy is framed, so most voters of both parties buy the idea that austerity is necessary and beneficial) and so currently has a lock on a clueless and formerly Democratic bloc of voters.
