The most important phrase in Trump’s speech

President Donald Trump is a radical extremist: His speech declared war against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Why the most important phrase in Trump’s speech might be “civilized world”. Obamaism sought strength in unity; Trumpism finds power through division (and more and more). Trump sets up the scapegoats for his presidency. Watch what Donald Trump does, not what he says. You’ll learn more about Trump by looking at his new website than listening to his speech. The system has failed and a con artist has won: What happens when the marks are demanding that the promises he made be redeemed, and there is nowhere for him to go, and he commands the powers of the state?

Anti-elitism, the Trump version: It’s all been Washington’s fault — Wall Street, what’s that? Donald Trump's eternal campaign: The new president’s first actions in office suggest his style from the trail isn’t going away soon.
