Liberal plutocrats win a critical battle with their Biden puppet in the capitalist civil war and Trump keeps helping them


The globalist faction of the US capital (primarily consisted by the liberal plutocracy) had the chance to counterattack against the capitalists around Trump through Biden's recent victory, in the ongoing capitalist civil war.
 
Yet, despite the fact that Trump brought some serious trouble to the liberal capitalists, ironically, he came right on time to rescue them. He helped them escape from the dead end, after eight years of an utterly disappointing Obama administration. 

At the time when the liberal capitalists ran out of tricks (and social movements were pushing for real change in the US), Trump came to their rescue. Suddenly, the Obama fraud was almost forgotten and all the progressives had to align behind the liberal fraudsters in order to defeat the "creepy orange clown". After four years of anti-Trump liberal hysteria and a pandemic nightmare that also came right on time, the liberal capitalists managed to put another puppet in power. And they did it without the slightest retreat against their neoliberal order that almost wiped out the US working class all previous years.
 
Biden's victory was a disaster for the real Left in the United States. The Biden liberal loyalists, aka corporate Dems, will now demand from all wings to comply with their terms. Including "The Squad" and every other single progressive. 

As we wrote right before the election, with a potential Biden victory the corporate Dems will re-establish their position in the party against progressives, as they will be able to play the Trump-scare card for four more years. During that time, they will get all the help they want from the liberal media to bury forever the most popular Socialist policies. Simply by claiming that the Trump nightmare could return in 2024. Therefore, they will demand "unity" from all party members under their own terms, in short, under full restoration of the neoliberal status quo.
 
Well, actually Trump still helps them with his attitude. 

With his persistence to defy the election result, he justifies corporate Dems who continue to project their devotion to stop him as their sole mission. And this situation helps them distract people from policies that will help the working class. Policies which are contrary to the interests of their wealthy donors and the liberal capitalist faction they serve.
 
A first taste from Biden's cabinet clearly shows that the liberal plutocracts want to restore neoliberal order beyond any compromise. Their ultimate political goal is not only to make progressives fully comply with their agenda in order to take full control of the Democratic Party. They also want to take over the Republican Party, using the never-Trump Republicans. 

 
Capitalists around Trump have now very few options. Despite the fact that Trump's attitude helps their liberal opponents in the capitalist war, it seems that it's the only thing they got right now. Considering that Trump managed to build a solid army of fanatically devoted, ultra-conservative followers, the capitalists around him will use them to escalate tension and even provoke a working class civil war. Especially in case of an elevated threat against them from the liberal capitalist faction during Biden's presidency. 

Therefore, it is almost certain that things will not be that easy for the liberal capitalists either. Furthermore, Biden is certainly not the type of politician who could inspire progressives. Not even close. And this means that the corporate Dems may find extremely difficult to keep the party in one piece under their neoliberal terms.
 
As we wrote recently, progressives could take advantage of their popularity and join the effort for a third party that will truly serve the American people. They've already proved that they don't need corporate money to get re-elected, after all.
 
We should expect more chaos during the next four years from the triple conflict between the liberal elites, the far-right and the real Left, inside and outside the US political duopoly. Yet, despite the fact of being in the most disadvantageous position for now, the real Left could also take advantage of the capitalist chaos to beat both neofascism and neoliberalism.

Palestinian statehood is not a bargaining chip. It is not a threat. It is an inalienable right of the Palestinian people. Our demands on this shameful government remain the same: end all arms sales to Israel, impose widespread sanctions, and stop the genocide, now. — Jeremy Corbyn (@jeremycorbyn) July 29, 2025
