Trump is not a classic liberal, nor did he ever claim to be. He's a former Democrat, ffs.
Here he is advocating for gun confiscation without due process:
We should probably explain that 'classic conservative' is someone who is like a modern 'liberal', who respects individual rights and the state caring for people."Classical liberal" is a phrase invented by the Right, for the Right.

Haven't been on Facebook, I see.Can anyone point me to one American who says they want the US to adopt Stalinism? To adopt Maosim? To even adopt Castroism? One. Single. American? I don't think so.
No, you've got it exactly backwards.
Suppose we had a free market in auto manufacturing across the entire USA. Explain how one auto manufacturer could prevent others in the entire country from making and selling cars, without government regulation.
Here's a real-world example of a thriving market with no monopolies, and no regulation.
Everything anarchists need to know about economics, they learned reading Ayn Rand novels.Laws forbidding price-fixing are regulations, yes?
Are you suggesting that markets work better when producers can collude on prices at will?
If so, I think you're very mistaken.

Rand was a right wing libertarian. Anarchists are Libertarian socialists. All you're doing here is advertising your ignorance.Everything anarchists need to know about economics, they learned reading Ayn Rand novels.
Anarchists of all stripes have one thing in common that overshadows any differences.Rand was a right wing libertarian. Anarchists are Libertarian socialists. All you're doing here is advertising your ignorance.
Is it a failure? Only in the sense that they failed to defend themselves when they sent such fear through the european governments that they allowed hitler to rebuild the german army.Anarchists of all stripes have one thing in common that overshadows any differences.
They don't understand how humans work.
I fail to see any difference between two ideological failures, regardless of how you dress them up.
For some reason you seem to believe that "Stalinism" and "Marx-Leninism" are the same thing.They have a website:
https://www.workers.org/
That is Worker's World, a site which is run by the Worker's World Party, a American Marxist- Leninist party founded back in 1959. Just because they are very few, doesn't mean they are none.
Ummm, the only country that uses the "American Tape Measure"In an American context, I don't see the 'far left' as inherently undemocratic. I think the term can refer to undemocratic (communist vanguardist) and democratic (Green/socialist) left wing ideologues. Now if we are talking about 'radical left wing', we are definitely discussing an undemocratic leftish group which either uses force or coercion to gain or maintain political power. The ideological tape measures in Europe, Asia and South America use different labels and measure things quite differently.
Maybe the US should finally admit the truth and officially announce that it is aRegulation is in the Constitution. Long before Marx birth.
A "Classic Liberal" is someone who wants to retain the good bits of society and improve the bad bits, even though doing so might not be the best thing to do for the societal subset that they belong to.We should probably explain that 'classic conservative' is someone who is like a modern 'liberal', who respects individual rights and the state caring for people.
More correctly "Everything anarchists need to know about economics, they learned reading Ayn Rand novels until their lips got tired."Everything anarchists need to know about economics, they learned reading Ayn Rand novels.
Stalinism is one version of Marxism- Leninism. Marxism- Leninism was the ideology of the USSR throughout it's existence, while Stalinism was the ideology under Stalin, thus Stalinism is a subtype of Marxism- Leninism. Marxism- Leninism is the most usual version of Communism you will run into. For example Maoism and Titoism are both subtypes of Marxism- Leninism as PRC is officially Marxist- Leninist state, and so was Tito's Yugoslavia. All Communist States that has existed has been Marxist- Leninist. And talking about Stalin: he was the one who invented the term Marxism- Leninism.For some reason you seem to believe that "Stalinism" and "Marx-Leninism" are the same thing.
I suspect that the reason why you believe that is that you don't know what either one of them actually is.
Yes.
Collusion regarding prices only works when the state limits entry into the market. Other than that, there is no way to collude on pricing, because it's impossible to monitor everyone, and it's impossible to prevent new competitors from coming in and undercutting you.
As I recall (and if I'm incorrect, I'd be more than pleased to see the evidence that I am) Tito's government had a program wherebyI've met two people who grew up in Tito's Yugoslavia, and they both passionately praise it.
Can you describe any successes?Is it a failure? Only in the sense that they failed to defend themselves when they sent such fear through the european governments that they allowed hitler to rebuild the german army.
I just did, the spanish anarchistsCan you describe any successes?
Worked right up until franco got hitler to invade.The reconciliation of anarchism and syndicalism was most complete and most successful in Spain; for a long period the anarchist movement in that country remained the most numerous and the most powerful in the world.
