Driven by the contradictory demands of his situation, and being at the same time, like a juggler, under the necessity of keeping the public gaze on himself, by springing constant surprises, Trump throws the whole bourgeois economy into confusion, violates everything that seemed inviolable to the Imperial neoliberal priesthood, makes some tolerant of revolution and makes others lust for it, and produces anarchy in the name of order, while at the same time stripping the entire state machinery of its halo, profaning it and making it at once loathsome and ridiculous.
