Gabriel Schoenfeld: To condemn the attack on Trump's life requires being honest about his candidacy.
From "Assassination Politics: Is Donald Trump Reaping What He Sowed?"(www.colombotelegraph.com):
Donald Trump is not a good man. Yet his entry into politics has carved out a new, not a fresh, chapter in American politics. Deeply entrenched in identity politics and appealing to the base instincts of white nationalism (a kinder phrase for white supremacy), Trump has unleashed a most destructive mindset in the American drama and his appeal to those who are enthralled by the wild west' portrayed by John Wayne and Clint Eastwood cannot be understated. Instead of embracing the future, those Trump supporters have chosen to traverse back to the past; they indulge in the fantasies of a society in which the Blacks were still slaves and the Chinese were fruit pickers.
Their refusal to enter into a socially sophisticated and philosophically advanced social platform has caused tremendous fissures in the American milieu. The difference between the Republican Party supporters and Liberal-minded folks has opened up a never shrinking gulf between the two mindsets. On the brink of this social paradigm sits the most dastardly-minded super rich class. They have become the the fundamental cogs of the machine that rolls only one way- more profits for the rich and more tax cuts for the ultra-rich. It is a vicious cycle of political malpractice.
"He said that's what he's going to do at the RNC convention. We'll see. It's strategically the smart thing to do."
