Boris Kagarlitsky:

"The stories of impending totalitarian repressions to which Trump will subject women and various minorities are just absurd and false propaganda by liberals, who used it to try scare the American public, but only succeeded in drawing themselves into a state of panic hysteria. The limitations on immigration will indeed take place, and this would without a doubt result in an increase of the popularity of the new president among African Americans, Latinos, and all poor people in general, since they are the ones who lose from the competition with the illegal immigrants (as opposed to the privileged white upper middle class who profit from the cheap labor of the illegal aliens). Mexican unemployed workers, instead of having to risk lives while crossing the border into the US, and making a living by drug trafficking, will get an opportunity to make decent money building a multi-kilometer wall between the two states. Construction companies will get contracts; the infrastructure will grow."

Fascinating.

Worries about cops getting free rein to kill Black youth and women losing the right to abortion, ever more constrained, is dismissed by Kagarlitsky who also believes that Latinos will rally around Trump because he will step up deportations.
