      I have always thought of the president as a representing a specific cadre of the bourgeoisie that is still 99% in lock step with the rest with a little bit of pentagon infighting sprinkled in (war with Russia vs. war with China, etc.)

      • Biden does represent the big bourgeoisie in general (they’re mostly in agreement AFAIK), like every other president, which is why he was selected; I’m talking about a hypothetical situation where he for some reason stopped being a disgusting person and decided to go off script, in which case they’d deal with him like they did with JFK (who was far from pro-worker, just not quite as obedient as they wanted)
