In June, 2020, we wrote that, the whole picture indicates that all these far-right militia groups together with a significant part the US police force are forming a loony army of Trump defenders, driven by racism, ultra-conservative ideas and far-right extreme conspiracy theories.
These fanatics have become so loyal to their leader - who happens to be the President of the United States - that they will do whatever it takes to see him in charge for another four years. As Trump's popularity has taken a downturn, his "brigades" are ready to take action in case he loses November's election. Especially if he loses marginally.
Previously, we explained that, what we see now in the United States with Trump, is a counter-attack by the part of the American capital against the globalist faction. The faction that is primarily consisted by the liberal plutocracy. Therefore, as the capitalist class splits, the capitalists around Trump are now taking with them the most conservative part of the American society, as they need electoral power. They have the money and their own media network. Their first big victory was Trump in the US presidency and this explains why the liberal media attack him so hard and so frequently.
Consequently, all these crises of the last two decades revealed more and more clearly this merciless war among the capitalists. As these have the real power with the big money and the big media, this war not only overshadows every effort for a real alternative against the capitalist system. It even brutally crushes every attempt for a democratic revival. The rampageous bulls of capitalism are fighting each other in an arena in which democracy has now turned into dust under their violent clatters.
And under these circumstances, the capitalists won't hesitate to throw in the arena the expendable US working class. To fight on their behalf in an equally merciless civil war.
The recent, unprecedented events with Trump supporters storming US Capitol, could be interpreted as the first serious warning shot by capitalists around Trump. They have already thrown in the arena several working class Americans and they already sacrificed five of them. Unfortunately, this may be only the beginning. Because this ruthless capitalist faction won't give up so easily after Biden's victory.
Indeed, as we already explained, 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.
The alternative for pro-Trump capitalists would be the formation of their own political party, with Trump in the leadership, to run in 2024. Although Trump managed to create a solid base with fanatic supporters, such a political attempt won't have good chances to take power in the next general election.
Apart from that, four years of Biden (or probably Harris in the end) in the US presidency, will give enough time to the liberal plutocrats to fully restore neoliberal order and deal with most of the pro-Trump capitalist faction, once and for all. The most significant ally of the pro-Trump capitalists outside the US will remain Boris Johnson. And they will probably use him to sabotage international agreements in an effort to maintain some negotiating power against the liberal capitalists.
Pro-Trump capitalists gambled heavily with the unprecedented events in Capitol. They actually gave to their capitalist liberal rivals exactly what they wanted. Now, liberal capitalists will demand law and order and will place every attempt for a revolutionary change into the same basket with Trump's mob storm in Capitol. Progressives inside and outside the Democratic party will not dare to even mumble anything about Socialist policies, as the DNC "barons" will constantly reminding them the enormous danger of a Trump 2.0 comeback. Liberal capitalists will unconditionally demand "unity" from all party members and voters through their DNC proxies, more than ever.
The best hope for pro-Trump capitalists right now is an article of impeachment against Donald Trump by the House Democrats that will seek to charge him with "inciting violence". This will probably make Trump fanatics even more angry, and no one will be able to predict the consequences during the days until Biden's inauguration day.
Unfortunately, what the US working class doesn't seem to understand, is that it is expendable for both capitalist factions that are now fighting each other. And that both these capitalist factions won't hesitate to shed the blood of the US working class in a brutal civil war, just to protect their interests. Inside this terrible pandemic, Americans must finally understand one thing: that their real, common enemy is the capitalist elites of all sides. And that they must fight that enemy, united.
