My hunch is, under cover of racial justice, attacks on American’s heritage, defacing and pulling down statues, smearing, distorting and erasing our history have the fingerprints of Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping all over them. Sadly, a handful of mindless thugs are happy to serve as handmaidens and hatchet-men. Tragically, Vlad or Xi versus Donald Trump is like Sven Øen Carlsen smiling across a chessboard at an autistic five-year-old—NOT in any way to depreciate autistic five-year-olds.
If we hang tough and dump Trump we can survive.
