"I think the tearing down of Confederate statues is something people are doing because they can't tear down Trump."
"It's like kicking the dog after a hard day working for a boss you hate," I said a few days ago.And now here's a column in The Washington Post by Anne Applebaum:
Polish and Ukrainian statues [of Lenin] came down as the result of a revolutionary moment, a sudden break in the political situation. In the United States in 2017, we are living through what feels to many like a similar, though not entirely analogous, revolutionary moment. The election of Trump, the first American president in decades to use unapologetically racist language — starting with his insidious slur that Barack Obama was not American, moving on to his reference to Mexican “rapists” and continuing with his refusal to condemn neo-Nazis — has smashed the ordinary rhythms of American political life. Suddenly, in Trump’s America, a statue honoring a Confederate leader looks like not just a boring monument to the distant past but a living political statement about the present.Suddenly!
Suddenly I see just how much that damned dog looks like that bastard I have to work for.
