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.
