When you look it at like this, oooh that's why some leftists basiclly seem to be trying to get trump elected. Not "force the democrats to reform" but to destroy evil Neoliberal America.
While I understand the logic to wanting to destroy neoliberal America, there is absolutely no guarantee that what will replace it is something more progressive. I agree that neoliberalism isn't optimal and there are many contradictions that result in exploitation, but I rather have that than fascism.
The most likely candidate to replace neoliberalism in the US if the status quo changes seems to clearly be fascism.
Russians think that they can bargain with a fascist regime. Just like during the Ribbentrop-Molotov pact.
Maybe, I think the more important problem is Trump is on their pocket. Whether it's because of money, kompromat, threats, or something else, he's clearly following instructions from the Kremlin.
I agree. But I also think that he's a loose cannon who will explode in their faces eventually.
