Trump may be a Republican president but he should be understood as the product of the degeneration of both parties and, more broadly, as a symptom of a ruling class in crisis. Without the collusion of a party that had the audacity to nominate the word-salad spewing, DEI-darling Kamala Harris as a replacement for the senile Biden, Trump would never have come to power. What is significant is that these were the only two options the ruling class could scrape from the bottom of its barrel. The European elites are similarly hard-pressed. The EU is led by vain morons.
Capitalism has consequences. One of them is the inexorable imbecilization of the bourgeoisie. The old slogan "socialism or barbarism" has never seemed more apt. Barbarism is many things, cruelty and violence foremost, but also the mental vacuity, the headlessness, that turns ostensibly rational animals into destructive automata.
