With the 2024 Presidential Election approaching, the USA must brace itself for the dangers of a second Trump presidency.
In this first part of his analysis, George Grundy examines the political turmoil that erupted during Trump's first term in office. Read part two here, part three here, part four here and part five here.
America at the Crossroads
It didn’t begin with trains, concentration camps and ovens. The descent into the fascist abyss was marked by a thousand nicks and cuts to the social fabric, by themselves often barely remarked upon. Slowly and surely, a collective indifference to the daily indignities inflicted upon those deemed the “other” became something more malevolent. Marginalised groups were singled out as threats to a fantasised, bygone way of life and distrust turned to hate.
After all, the country faced a moment of existential crisis, he told them. Not making dramatic changes during such a time of emergency would be a betrayal of his duty, he insisted. Such was the danger, his party assured the public, that only centralising power in the hands of one man would allow him to take the sort of swift, decisive action that might save the nation. During such febrile times, drastic revisions to the law and the concentrating of political control seemed reasonable, patriotic even.
