PHILIP A. FARRUGGIO—So, how could the Trumpster work to aid the powerful National Democratic Party? Well, look what has transpired.

Contrary to anticommunist propaganda, most peasants accepted collectivization. Resistance was modest; acts of outright rebellion rare. By 1932 Soviet agriculture, including in the Ukrainian SSR, was largely collectivized.
