The New York Times is trying to scare its readers by saying that President Trump is presenting himself as the defender of “white America.”
Of course, for the Times, “white America” should not exist, and no one should defend it, notwithstanding any sentimental notions you might have about the white Americans who wrote the Constitution, or settled the frontier, or invented the airplane and the air conditioner, or stormed Normandy Beach, or landed on the moon, or who just gave you life.
Those folks, for the Times, were all racists, whether they knew it or not, and possessors of that dastardly “white privilege,” and the sooner we forget about them and tear down their statues and subject their descendants to “diversity training” and the like, the better off we’ll all be.
