"The slumbering giant of America is awakening,"
"Over 6 million people watched Kimmel's Tuesday monologue assailing Trump's attempt to censor him, Reich said. Another 26 million watched it on social media, including YouTube. (Kimmel's usual television audience is about 1.42 million.)"
"His attribution of autism to Tylenol, even though doctors say it is safe for pregnant women in moderation. His unilateral imposition of tariffs as high as 100 percent on imports of pharmaceuticals and kitchen cabinets."
"his neofascism and his dementia are both in plain sight."
Robert Reich highlights a series of events and reactions that indicate rising public anger and scrutiny toward Donald Trump. Massive viewership for Jimmy Kimmel's monologue and extensive social media sharing demonstrated broad public engagement. Reports of directives to deploy forces to Portland and comments about domestic unrest intensified controversy. Controversial statements at the United Nations, assertions linking Tylenol to autism despite medical reassurance, and the imposition of steep tariffs on imports further fueled criticism. Reich characterizes these patterns as evidence of dangerous authoritarian tendencies and cognitive decline, and frames them as factors contributing to declining support and heightened opposition.
