By co-opting an ultra-right wrecking crew, Donald Trump is sending the US back to the 1920s
Burnham, W. D.
(2017).
By co-opting an ultra-right wrecking crew, Donald Trump is sending the US back to the 1920s.
Since Donald Trump’s election, he has been assembling what Walter Dean Burnham has termed his ‘ultra-right wrecking crew’. And while Trump’s proposed Cabinet members are the most right-wing group of leaders in 90 years, at least they will require Senate confirmation. Trump’s appointment of Steve Bannon, on the other hand – who is heavily linked to the alt-right – in a high-profile White House role will require no such approval by elected officials.
