Yes, but the “Kleptocrats” are by and large leftist/progressives....not all by any means but a significant percentage.

And the Kleptocrat Generals will find that an army of gutless wonders is no army.

I would submit that their supporters are almost invariably leftist. But that their leaders, and their most influential supporters, aren't -- or, at least, they are not guided by ideology, but rather self-interest. I know this sounds strange, but I really don't think Hillary Clinton is really leftist, at least, not in the way that the clowns in Berkeley are. I think her primary concern is the cash flow going into the Clinton Foundation, and her leftist rhetoric is, and always has been, primarily a means to an end. She may be leftist in thought, and speech, but her actions will always be dictated by self-interest.

As far as an "army" -- yes, you are correct. Their supporters barely even qualify as cannon fodder. But look at what happened to the Berkeley police department. Even in these early skirmishes, they are clearly siding with the parasitic class. Urban police departments, and other similar groups, are going to find themselves increasingly under orders to pick a side, and it won't be the side that they, by and large, sympathize with.

As I said, this is all hypothetical, and fortunately unlikely, because significant escalation is unlikely unless one of two things happen, both of which are low-probability events: a real economic collapse, or a successful impeachment of Trump.
