"Trump's war against voting in the midterms confirms that January 6, 2021, was not an accident but the application of a principle of Trumpism"

The upcoming midterm elections on November 3 will test Marx's idea that history repeats itself, first as tragedy and then as farce. The tragedy refers to the January 6, 2021, Capitol assault aimed at overturning Biden's victory. The farce could be a Democratic wave reversing Republican obstacles to voting, reflecting Trump's historic unpopularity. Under Trump, Congress has weakened, but a Democratic majority could restore its oversight power and limit Trump's nominations. Recent legal actions in Alaska hint at Trump's attempts to influence the election outcome, targeting a Senate seat crucial for control.
