As a joke I posted Marx on Trump on my Facebook page last November:
“Driven by the contradictory demands of his situation and being at the same time, like a conjurer, under the necessity of keeping the public gaze fixed on himself, by springing constant surprises, that is to say, under the necessity of executing a coup d’etat en miniature every day, he throws the entire bourgeois economy into confusion, violates everything that seemed inviolable, makes some tolerant of revolution, others desirous of revolution, and produces actual chaos in the name of order, while at the same time stripping its halo from the entire state machine, profanes it and makes it at once loathsome and ridiculous.”
