No trying-to-be objective and fair journalist, no citizen who cares about
the country and its future can ignore what Donald Trump said today. When he
suggested that "The Second Amendment People" can stop Hillary Clinton he
crossed a line with dangerous potential. By any objective analysis, this is
a new low and unprecedented in the history of American presidential politics
.
This is no longer about policy, civility, decency or even temperament. This
is a direct threat of violence against a political rival. It is not just
against the norms of American politics, it raises a serious question of
whether it is against the law. If any other citizen had said this about a
Presidential candidate, would the Secret Service be investigating?
Candidate Trump will undoubtably issue an explanation; some of his
surrogates are already engaged in trying to gloss it over, but once the
words are out there they cannot be taken back. That is what inciting
violence means.
To anyone who still pretends this is a normal election of Republican against
Democrat, history is watching. And I suspect its verdict will be harsh.
Many have tried to do a side-shuffle and issue statements saying they
strongly disagree with his rhetoric but still support the candidate. That is
becoming woefully insufficient. The rhetoric is the candidate.
This cannot be treated as just another outrageous moment in the campaign. We
will see whether major newscasts explain how grave and unprecedented this
is and whether the headlines in tomorrow's newspapers do it justice. We will
soon know whether anyone who has publicly supported Trump explains how they
can continue to do.
We are a democratic republic governed by the rule of law. We are an honest,
fair and decent people. In trying to come to terms with today's discouraging
development the best I can do is to summon our greatest political poet
Abraham Lincoln for perspective:
"We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies. Though passion may
have strained it must not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords
of memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot grave to every
living heart and hearthstone all over this broad land, will yet swell the
chorus of the Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by the
better angels of our nature."
Lincoln used these stirring words to end his First Inaugural Address. It was
the eve of the Civil War and sadly his call for sanity, cohesion and peace
was met with horrific violence that almost left our precious Union asunder.
We cannot let that happen again. | n******h
