"It dawned on me yesterday, watching the Sunday shows..."
.
Ironic, given that President Trump, when asked what he relies upon for information said, "I watch the shows". Great minds in the same rut, perhaps?
.
In reality the author of this piece makes commits two major errors. First, we need not fear Trump's inner circle, but we should be terrified of the millions of Americans who follow him blindly.
.
Second, Trump's supporters will not concern themselves with white, male academics who pontificate from the faculty lounge.  They will however savage those of us who dare demonstrate against him in the streets or at Trump's stage managed rallies. Especially vulnerable are women, minorities and those of certain religious beliefs.
