    At the end of the day, Trump represents a faction of the Bourgeoisie that is domestically focused for the most part. I'm not going to say there are no global interests for the capitalists that support him, there definitely are. But his opposition represents the cosmopolitan bourgeoisie which lives and dies by imperial expansion. The new neoliberal/neoconservative anti-Trump alliance is founded on Imperialist proclivities. They don't fucking care if Trump is crass and disrespectful of norms, they care that he's not doing enough to squeeze superprofits from the global south. Acknowledging this isn't "supporting Trump".

      And my argument is that this is too much believing what Trump says and ignoring what his administration has actually done.
