I didn't make that point, I said she is right-wing, and is running on the same foreign policy as Trump did 4 years ago, with her promising to build the wall and strengthen border patrol.

Either way:

Authoritarian

What do you mean by this? America isn't a real democracy, if she supports the current system then I believe her to be authoritarian.

Ultra-nationalist

If you count Trump's border policy from 2016-2020 as Ultra-Nationalist, she's Ultra-Nationalist. She also wants the US military to be, and I quote from her speech at the DNC, as "the most lethal military in the world."

Forcible suppression of opposition

Democrats kicked the Party for Socialism and Liberation off the ballot in Georgia already, so while we aren't all the way there, signs of it are showing up

Militarisation of society

Not there yet, sure.

State controlled economy

Much of the US economy is state-controlled, it's just that the US State is controlled by the Bourgeoisie.
