The Trotskyites (aka Neocons) were planning to run foreign policy for Tsarina Hillary and by doing so end up holding all the cards because the Congressional/Military/Industrial complex would be beholden to them, not to the Clinton faction.
Marxists, Trotskyites, Bolsheviks, it's all the same on one level but knowing which factions are vying for power presents an excellent opportunity for those who oppose them all. Unfortunately, Conservatives think in simple terms and therefore time and again miss the opportunity to split their opponents but on rare occasions do take advantage of the splits between the factions of their opponents.
Think what you like, makes no difference to me because I've been watching people who say the same thing you just told me beat drums, bang gongs, and shoot off fireworks, to scare away America's domestic enemies for over six decades. During that time there have been three near collapses of those enemies that only a few Conservatives even suggested we take advantage. Instead, Conservatives just kept doing more of the same and when they did have an advantage, sold it for a bowl of porridge.
So, get busy with the drums, gongs, and fireworks, those devils are still around after all these years.
Trotskyites and neocons. While a Marxist Mob tries to frame Trump and have him removed from office. Look squirrel!! I smell Soros.
