WASHINGTON, April 2 — A necessary step for some, a “witch hunt” for others: the historic indictment of Donald Trump has further entrenched perceptions that partisanship has cleaved the United States, with the former president at the centre of the storm.
It is a perception that has not escaped politicos: the indictment is above all a “gift to the campaign managers and strategists in both major parties,” giving them “an opportunity to stoke outrage,” Robert Talisse, a Vanderbilt University expert on political polarization, toldIndeed, several leading Republicans, including the former president, have already launched fund-raising campaigns to fight what they have called a “political persecution.
As the indictment was announced on Thursday night, with some liberals on social media mocking the “MAGA tears” of Trump backers, a small group converged outside the former president’s luxurious Florida residence to display their support and express their anger. The country “was far more intensely fractured and segregated in the 1900s and 2000s than it is today. We are a more diverse and more participatory country than we have ever been,” Schiller said, adding that “more voices can mean things get louder and angrier.”
