Yeah right. You obviously support him.

Yes I probably am going to vote Trump in 2020 because if a third party couldn't break 5% in 2016 of all years it's never going to happen and even if it did the two main parties would just destroy them like they did the Reform Party so I might as well support the candidate most beneficial to my goals. I support Trump in the sense that I acknowledge him as a useful idiot who pushes a few things beneficial and or favorable to me ie judicial appointments.

A genuinely nationalist wing perhaps, I doubt they'd follow through with it though. Most of the GOP appears to dislike 45's stance on trade.
Which presents a rather interesting disconnect between the base and the establishment. Most right wingers I know nowadays are fully onboard with Trumps trade policies and want to try and protect American workers and business but the party itself still seems, as you've said, to be straight up neo-cons still.

Give it time and the affects of his tariffs will kick in. I'm pretty sure the tariff approach almost has no history of going well.

Yes and no.
Mild tariffs actually did good things building native manufacturing/industry in a lot of the developing world, especially back in the Cold War era. But as a rule of thumb they are a big gamble sooo the odds are high that the ham-fisted approach Trump is taking will backfire.

iirc a pretty great number of manufacturing jobs have cropped up since Trump became POTUS though. While I agree some of his tariff campaigns have been misguided going after China is great.

I don't trust that it's going to last though. He's going overboard with the tariff approach on like everything. I actually already noticed the prices of wood for example when I worked at Lowes went up a LOT while I was there.

Oh yeah without a doubt. Going after close allies with random tariff campaigns is dumb and could be done in a much better way by just sitting down to discuss changes to trade deals with them. Like I've said before Trump is a move in the right direction imo but he's a raging dumbass in the process.
