In place of effective governance, Trump is counting on partisanship to polarize the race. And a crucial element of Trump’s polarization method is to suppress all internal dissent. jonathanchait writes
Photo: Drew Angerer/Getty Images The United States is in the midst of its worst economic catastrophe in 90 years, and its deepest public-health crisis in more than 100, and the president is laser-focused on the co-host of a morning cable-news talk show whose audience, about 1.1 million daily viewers, equals less than one third of one percent of the population.
This is why Trump relentlessly claims that his approval ratings among Republicans have risen to 95 percent or 96 percent. It is why he devotes so much energy to defining “Never Trumpers” as a hostile clique to be distrusted, and why he lobbed gratuitous insults at Mitt Romney rather than try to patch up his relationship with a man who solicited his endorsement in 2012.
National Review published a brief editorial noting that Scarborough did not, in fact, murder his former staffer. The editorial, headlined “Trump’s Grotesque Tweets,” falls into a familiar niche of criticism largely centered on the president’s style. He is lamentably undisciplined, rude, distractible, and undignified. “It’s unworthy of a partisan blogger, let alone the president of the United States,” lament National Review’s editors.
