Trump’s Legal Battles: White Supremacy Mythology’s Fight for Dominance
<p>I find myself unexpectedly captivated by Donald Trump’s legal battles, in a way that goes beyond schadenfreude, if only a bit. I think that a big reason for his current ubiquitous exposure goes beyond the face value of a mediocre, in some ways demonstrably disabled, powerful white man on trial. The ever multiplying and widening cracks in his defenses, and the gaslighting, narcissism and lies he’s frantically spewing to tape his delusions back together mirror the deepening cracks in the foundations of the white supremacy mythology foundation upon which U.S. culture is built. Trump gets the spotlight because he’s its quintessential avatar. His courtroom shenanigans serve as proxy for what’s really on trial, and competing for dominance as the figurehead of our country: white supremacy mythology itself.</p>
