This guy is actually destroying the capital. Ruining the richest men on earth. He should stay in place, and unhinged longer and longer.
When he will crash the stock market enough, and manage to do what no revolution ever did, then the workers will have enough power to seize the mean of production, since the stocks will be so cheap, and the former billionaire on their knee without their imaginary wallstreet wealth.
I suppose there are some downside I have a blind-spot on, but for now trump seems to be the best anti-capitalist tool there ever was.
What are some tankies thinking?
I think this line of thought is dangerous. I think you’re right that Trump is doing reckless things, and will probably damage some stuff, but cheap stocks do not translate to the working class buying them and taking power. Capital may change hands from one sector of the bourgeoisie to another, but it won’t leave the hands of the bourgeoisie. It might spark some unification of the working class because the working class will always bear the brunt of anything that goes wrong, but it’s also possible that this frustration may be channeled into fascism.
Clever observation, you’re right Fascist could feed on such a sinking market.
Knowing the history of the USA I would have bet on a launch of a crazy war to distract and reaffirm its power. But fascism might be more likely
