Some problems go beyond politics. Political polarization and lack of agreement on the fundamental moral sense of right and wrong are two different things. One of the reasons Trump was able to establish a tyranny of the minority is because he followed the Fox News model of destroying the fundamental fundamental truths of the nation. One of the most dangerous things the president and his party have done since returning to office in 2025 occurred in the wake of the Charlie Kirk shooting, when Trump and his allies attempted to use Kirk’s assassination to turn political violence into a moot…
