I’ll admit that I didn’t think much of the “Trumpism” issue when I received it. I was pretty confident that his ineptitude would cost the GOP what should have otherwise been an easy election win and that the MAGA movement didn’t have much staying power afterward.

It turns out that I was wrong and Jacobin’s issue was incredibly timely. Special praise to Dustin Guastella’s “The Right Without Wrong” and Doug Henwood’s preview of the economic disaster that awaits both capital and labor in a Donald Trump administration. Like Guastella, as someone from the old Catholic Worker tradition, I hope the Left can carry forth politics driven by morals and a sense of universalist justice through the next four years.

Whether that’s the case or not, I’m confident that Jacobin has something important to offer us in these trying times, and I’ll continue to pick up my quarterly copy on newsstands (which might be a better bet than mail after what the Trump administration does to the postal service).
