There is no Democratic outrage because they all fundamentally agree with Trump’s program. If there’s to be any opposition, it has to come from below, from the working class.

Lenin concluded his analysis with a memorable declaration:

In its struggle for power the proletariat has no other weapon but organization. …

Brutal crackdowns against the undocumented were part of the Biden and Obama administrations too. The Democrats present no real opposition to Trump and never will.

Hitler was appointed chancellor by von Hindenburg. The German people did not “vote” him into the position nor are the people responsible for the enabling act. It is the bourgeoisie and the cowardice of the communist parties that are to blame

What use is one dedicated surveillance operative against 1,000 class conscious workers? Regardless, thank you for the hopeless political prognosis. Might I suggest Prozac.

For one thing over the last 50 years, the working class is becoming an even greater share of the world’s population connected through instantaneous modes of communication. On top of that, increasing support for socialism along with Stalinism no longer existing to confuse and disorient.

Modern solutions? Are you aware that the Democratic Party is more than 160 years old? You may want to keep butting your head against that wall, but you’re find an increasing number of class conscious workers will reject that dead end.

Yes, they failed because they harbored reformist illusions in the democrats which has always been the Achilles heel of the workers movement in the US. Without such reformist illusions and the demoralization you preach, the state apparatus will be virtually powerless.

I would urge you to more closely follow political developments and make note of astronomic military funding, bank bailouts and the rolling back of democratic rights by both parties. Whether you believe it possible or not, the fight for the political independence of the working class is our only hope

The fantasy is considering that under conditions of terminal capitalist decline, that the two parties of the establishment will even be able to make even the most token concessions to the population.However the working class has indeed taken power before and must again to save human civilization

No, it isn’t inevitable provided that the working class takes political power and runs society in its own interests which are diametrically opposed to those of the Democrats, Republicans and the capitalist class as a whole.

Sorry, a kinder, gentler slide into World War III, mass poverty and dictatorship still leaves us with World War III, mass poverty and dictatorship.

The return of worker power will only take place once workers break from the pro corporate unions and form their own rank and file committees. www.wsws.org

It would be better if he effed off to Nuremberg 2.0 and then the noose once it’s over.

As the naked class interests that Trump represents become clear to millions, including those who voted for him, working-class opposition will grow.
