Anyone focused on "defeating trump" smells like a stupid lib with zero marxist analysys. I had never heard of PSL until quite recently (and I follow US politics closely) but they keep making me dislike and distrust them.

I think you should read the article. The title sounds a bit libby but the piece itself is quite good and has, i would say, overall a correct analysis.

The only thing i'd criticize is the title, because Trump is just a symptom, he's not what needs to be defeated but the entire system that put people like him, Biden, Harris, Obama, Bush, Clinton, etc. in positions of power. The corporate uniparty is what needs to be defeated, regardless whether it dresses itself in red or blue, whether it wears its fascism openly or disguises it with liberal platitudes.

Then again i suppose you could argue the title is clickbait to get more people to read the piece... Makes it something you could share with a liberal friend or relative and trick them into reading a real materialist analysis for once.
