    The voters are but not the leaders. I feel like this is a bit conflating the two.

    Trump specifically does not give a shit about fiscal conservatism so I suppose you could argue that puts him slightly to the left of some hardcore ideologues on those public spending issues. But not really since he has no actual values and only feels that way because he thinks (correctly) that cutting welfare is unpopular.
