The corporate world has either fallen silent or quietly “normalised” Donald Trump and it has unravelled the American democracy.
The warnings of America’s top military officers can hardly be clearer. “A fascist to the core” and “the most dangerous person to this country”, says General Mark Milley, ex-chairman of the joint chiefs of staff.
The result of letting off all these putschists with a slap across the wrist is a Congress today with a composition unlikely to certify a victory by Kamala Harris, should she win by anything less than a landslide, and therefore creates the pre-conditions for political civil war.This insouciance is in striking contrast to what happened in Brazil two years ago.
The National Association of Manufacturers has fallen silent as well. Has it forgotten its thundering condemnation of the putschists on Jan 6 2020, when it called for Trump’s immediate removal from office under the 25th Amendment? “How could we spend eight years railing against Trump and the danger his leadership poses to the country and then fail to endorse the perfectly decent Democrat challenger – who we previously endorsed for the US Senate?” said Mariel Garza, head of editorials, in her resignation letter., the newspaper that brought down Richard Nixon for abuse of power over Watergate, a misdemeanour when set against insurrection.
