Jury deliberations begin in former President Donald Trump's defamation case

A sane democratic socialist government in the United States would not make an instant multi-millionaire of anybody with a real or dubious claim of " defamation " in the law courts . . And millionaires and billionaires , who today too often get away with crude sexist behavior , would not have that much wealth to lose. But it does seem that former president Donald Trump is more persecuted than prosecuted by the bourgeois legal system. A long time ago Karl Marx explained that in no capitalist society was THE LAW above politics. What we see today is a political BRAWL within the American ruling class. That is what January 6, 2021 was all about .
