I will say that I slightly disagree with the framing. To me, American politics was ALWAYS kayfabe: "Ladies & gents, tonight we'll be having Democracy! Every vote counts, and every politician is saying what they mean!" Neoliberalism was just a part of that But it's true Trump intro'd neokayfabe

I do of course owe @sharonmazer.bsky.social partial credit for the neologism, not just because she blazed the trail for analyzing politics through the lens of pro wrestling, but also because she encouraged me to change the spelling from "Neo-Kayfabe" (cumbersome) to "neokayfabe" (elegant)
