The Fight Against All He Represents Begins Today

See from the RCP: A vile fascist has been elected President of the United States. There must be no illusions that somehow this will be OK. It won't.

Donald Trump - an ugly fascist who
campaigned on promises to build a wall, deport millions of immigrants
and ban Muslims from entering the US; who bragged about sexually
assaulting women and more – will be the next president of the US.
Everybody who opposes injustice has reason to be very concerned for
the future of humanity. This concern has already erupted in angry
protests, and it needs to move people to waging massive resistance to
everything Trump stands for. This is not a time for conciliation
or retreat; it's not a time for despair. It's a time for struggle; a
time for courage.
Let's be clear. Trump, even more than
his predecessors, is a grotesque representative of
capitalist/imperialist America. From its birth in slavery and
genocide, this system has always been a nightmare for countless
millions around the world and this country. The horrors of life under
this system are rooted in the very way this system operates. From the
beginning this system treated Trump – the fascist blowhard - as a
legitimate candidate to head the U.S. Empire. That underlines the
illegitimacy of the whole damn system. The ugly infighting in the
ruling class this campaign laid bare exposes a system in crisis.
A Trump presidency points to even more
horrific crimes being perpetrated against humanity. Massive
resistance is needed to all he represents right now. But this
resistance must NOT be aimed at returning to what has been,
continuing the same brutal system, its crimes and horrors.
What's necessary and possible is a
totally different world for people to live in. Doing this will take
revolution, nothing less. We in the Revolutionary
Communist Party (RCP) are organizing right now for an actual
revolution, one that overthrows this system and replaces it with a
far better one. We have the leadership needed to make this revolution
in Bob Avakian, the leader of
the RCP. We have a blueprint for the new society this revolution can
create in the Constitution
for the New Socialist Republic in North America. And we have the
strategy for making revolution in a country like this one, a strategy
that is laid out in the pamphlet, “How
We Can Win.”
This is a time for resisting the
horrors of this system, a time for taking advantage of the crisis of
this system, a time to be in the streets. And it's a time for
everyone who hates and wants to end the horrors people face in this
country and around the world to get into the revolution.
