Analyst: At this point, Trump is hardly hiding that his presidency is white

El political analyst Robert Funk assured that, just over a month before the presidential elections of the United States, the Administration of Donald Trump has increased his separatist stance in relation to the demonstrations of African Americans.

At this point, Trump is hardly hiding that his candidacy and his presidency are white“, stated in What Remains of the Day, using as an example his criticism of black athletes who have protested racial injustice, and recalling that the president has even questioned their patriotism, “saying that when they kneel during the national anthem it is somehow an affront to the country.”

“Surveys show that the vast majority of the country supports athletes, ‘Black Lives Matter’, to the protests, they understand what it is about, understand that it is not a subversive or violent thing, but Trump is doing his best to present it like this, to the point of sending the National Guard a few weeks ago to supposedly control cities, trying to create the impression that they were little less than in civil war, “reflected the academic from the Institute of Public Affairs of the University of Chile.

In the middle of resurgence of race riots over the Jacob Blake case, Funk does not rule out that this strategy favors Trump: “We know that in history the lie, if it is repeated often enough, begins to be accepted, and if you look at the polls, they have not moved that much, but in recent weeks Trump has risen a bit. A little more than a year ago. month the difference was about 10 points between Biden and Trump, and today it is seven “.
