What is Trumpism and how do we fight it? In this talk, originally titled "Fascism, Bonapartism, and right-wing populism," Bryce Gordon explains the Marxist theory of the state, and why Trump is not a fascist but a different kind of class enemy. To beat him, we have to understand his rise and what he represents.
To fully understand, we recommend a few readings:

With capitalism in its deepest crisis, some turned to Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump to challenge the status quo. As the two discredit themselves, many of their disillusioned supporters are now looking towards communism—and finding the Revolutionary Communists of America.

One crisis is layered upon another: Constitutional crisis, recession fears, and tariff chaos. Trump's pro-worker charade won't stand the test of events. The RCA is the only party arguing for consistent, class-independent politics. Our forces are growing, and so is the urgent need for our message.

The widespread sympathy for Luigi Mangione has starkly revealed the enormous amount of working-class anger that has built up in American society.

This week we republish an episode from our international podcast: Against the Stream: Trump’s dramatic return to the White House has thrown the liberals into complete panic and confusion. They have flung whatever insults they can at him: from semi-fascist, to fascist, to neo-fascist. To explain how Marxists should understand and approach these phenomena, Alan Woods, the leading theoretician of the Revolutionary Communist Internatio...
Despite the decline of organized religion in recent years, there has also been a concurrent rise in mysticism and “New Age” beliefs. How should communists approach this belief with people that we encounter in our work?

The liberal world order that has been in charge for decades has been put in the back seat by Donald Trump. His rule is accelerating the decline of capitalism and communists must organize for the crises to come and prepare for revolution.

The ferocious blaze that terrorized America’s second largest city is a product of the capitalist system in terminal decline. Private ownership and production for profit put the interests of a tiny capitalist cabal ahead of the interests of humanity as a whole.

Republished from the podcast of the RCI "Against the Stream" — With just two weeks before Trump re-enters the White House, the outgoing Democrats are doing everything they can to undermine the next president. In Ukraine in particular, where they fear a drastic change of course in the policy of US imperialism, they are funneling in as much money as they can get away with, as well as escalating the war by allowing Ukraine to strike d...
