3. Трамп's ("Trump" in Russian) Purge Trials to Echo or Even Mirror Those of Mao and Stalin

Both China and Russia (particularly during the Soviet era) conducted purge trials, but in different historical contexts and forms.

Soviet Union (Russia): Under Joseph Stalin in the 1930s, the Soviet Union experienced the Great Purge, which included high-profile public show trials. These trials targeted political opponents, military leaders, and members of the Communist Party deemed disloyal or counter-revolutionary. Many were accused of fabricated crimes, forced to confess through torture or intimidation, and executed or sent to labor camps. The trials aimed to eliminate perceived threats to Stalin's rule and consolidate power.

China: In China, under Mao Zedong and later during different political campaigns, purges were carried out against perceived enemies of the state. While not as focused on public trials as Stalin’s purges, the Anti-Rightist Movement, the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), and other campaigns involved mass purges. Political enemies, intellectuals, and suspected dissenters faced public humiliation, imprisonment, and execution, often without fair trials. The goal was to reinforce ideological purity and eliminate threats to the Communist Party's dominance.
