A must read. “One might be tempted to view [Bannon’s firing] as some kind of recalibration that could result in a change in the administration’s outlook toward matters of race.
Don’t be fooled.
Republicans will likely seize on Bannon’s ouster to argue that, in his heart, Trump isn’t really a racist.”
My additional thoughts: he won’t come for the Jews first. He’ll start with the Muslims and nonwhites like he’s already doing. Maybe anti-Semitism is still totally radioactive and we’re safe. But if and when he does, he’ll point to his children and say, “I’m only doing this to the dangerous Jews.” Opinion | Steve Bannon is out. That’s good, but the problem is still Donald Trump.
