*Introduction: “Frank” is a well-paid white worker and a socialist who lives in a largely white neighborhood in a major East Coast city. In his life, he gets around and talks with a lot of workers, many of whom are Trump supporters. We had this conversation with him about the threat of violence from the MAGA base. In our previous articles on the perspectives for the Trump administration, we discussed the conflicts within the MAGA coalition and how those conflicts will tend to limit how far Trump can go. Here, the potential for serious violence stemming from the MAGA base comes clear. If we present the whole perspective in an unclear way, that’s because it is, because the entire situation is so totally unprecedented and volatile. Anybody who thinks she or he knows for sure what will happen is really confused.* https://oaklandsocialist.com/2025/01/02/how-violent-can-maga-get/
Added note: The only ones who are more confused are those who deny that MAGA has any significant degree of support within the working class. -- *“Science and socialism go hand-in-hand.” *Felicity Dowling Check out:https:http://oaklandsocialist.com also on Facebook -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
