There are some interesting possibilities for left/right coalitions in the US.

A left-right coalition could....
A majority of folk are neither right nor left. Like the Hispanic ladies mentioned earlier, they believe in family, country, work, sometimes God. And like 98% of everybody, they have faith, hope and charity because those three make human life possible.

Trump's not an ideologue and neither is Le Pen, (she dropped her old man like a hot potato). They are populists.

That's what made the privileged and protected all hot and sweaty and gave their oldsters damp Depends, because:

They only believe in their family (Biden);

Don't believe in their country (Obama);

Have contempt for manual workers and those living in banlieues or fly-over country (McCain);

Their God is a stick for beating the believing citizen and a trophy of their privilege (Bergoglio).

They may have faith and hope but definitely are deficient in the charity department.

These privileged and protected, of course, will call the likes of Trump and Le Pen and their visible supporters, whatever names are currently conveniently alarming: "facists," "nazis," "commies," "Russian agents," "white supremacists," "RACISTS," and so forth.

When sufficiently desperate, or too full of hubris, these privileged and protected will turn the state organs of repression on the populist leaders and their visible followers. And sometimes even give permission to their informal political tools - for example, KKK, BLM, ANTIFA - to break heads, burn and kill.

Their hubris can badly injure the privileged and protected and kill hundreds of thousands and millions of innocents, as happened in WW1 and WW2, and perhaps might again happen as a result of the proxy war the US and European privileged and protected are waging against Russia in Ukraine, which so far, has (only!) claimed some thousands.

The privileged and protected have no claim to special intelligence. This is especially true of those of Ukraine who are a working demonstration of reversion to, or below, the mean, (particularly in the area of moral or ethical behaviour).
