Prof. Paul Craig Roberts on the midterm elections: ‘The Democratic Party in the past wanted to join the establishment, now the Democrats want REVOLUTION.’ ‘If the Democrats take control of the Congress, they're going to focus not on the Russians or the Chinese or the Iranians. They're going to focus on the Republicans. The Democratic Party is transitioning from a party of reform to a party of revolution. The new leaders, they're not yet in leadership positions, but they're the leaders in terms of they're on the cutting edge. They're the ones causing the movement, the talk. They're very radical. Afshin Rattansi: ‘But Professor, they always sell out as soon as they get near the head of the DNC, don't they? They sell out those ideas very quickly.’ Prof. Paul Craig Roberts: Well, in the past, the fight was to join the establishment, but now we've got people who've turned their back on the establishment, and they want to overthrow society. It's the way they speak, it's the emphasis they make, and they have discovered that law can be turned into a weapon to be used against your political opponents. They tried it out with all the charges against Trump. They recently described to a conference how these, how prosecutors could abuse law to destroy their political opponents, so I think you're going to see more emphasis on internal fights in the United States than Democrats anxious to go to war with Russia. I don't think they are anxious to go to war with Russia. I think they want to overthrow this existing social institutions.’ Don’t miss the full interview on Saturday’s Going Underground, follow us on Voante and follow our Rumble channel, link below in the replies 👇
