Trump to be Arrested Tuesday
No matter how many journalistic fluff pieces assert the contrary, this won’t be.Under existing arrangements, governance must serve two factions; only together do these factions constitute the ruling class.
Neither faction can govern alone. Both need what only the other can provide. But the arrangement is not easy. The alliance stands on mutual necessary but hostile accommodations. The class interests of these two factions clash on every issue.
In normal times, those constant, ongoing frictions and hostilities are hidden from public view. In times of crises, these hostilities cannot be hidden and break into public view.
Loathed as much as he is loved, Trump’s incarceration would signal the repudiation of the arrangement by which alone the ruling class can subjugate and dominate the working [proletarian] class.
As the two ruling class factions break out in open warfare against each other, it would be expected that this division would be replicated in the proletarian class, as both ruling factions were joined by supporting workers. This would be the ignoble end of the Great Experiment.
So I’m calling a bluff.
For now, at least.
