Adam Gopnik, a writer who has been polluting the planet through the New Yorker magazine since 1986, argues in TRUMP’S RADICAL ANTI-AMERICANISM this issue that "the President rejects [America's] foundational principles".
After the gratuitous Auschwitz opening paragraph, we are informed "The human capacity for hatred is terrifying in its volatility." He then provides himself to illustrate this stunning insight.
Guess what Gopnik thinks are America's foundational principles? If you guessed anything contained in the Bill of Rights, you would be wrong. Freedom of speech? Nope. Freedom of association? Nope. Any cultural characteristics like enlightened self-interest? Nope. Protestant work ethic? Nope, again. America's foundational principles are immigration and diversity. That's it.
The white Christian men who actually founded the country? They are losers, he says, and lists them "This was the view of Huck Finn’s pap, as he drank himself to death; of General Custer, as he approached Little Big Horn; of Major General Pickett, as he led the charge at Gettysburg."
Pure hatred.
