The article argues that Trumpism represents a significant threat to the established institutions that uphold civilization. These include legal systems, international alliances, and educational institutions that work to promote justice, knowledge, and public understanding. The warning is that under Trump, these institutions are facing a coordinated assault aimed at acquiring power for its own sake, diminishing learning and compassion. This multifaceted attack is seen as a direct challenge to the very frameworks that secure civilizational progress, necessitating a unified response from various sectors to protect them.
Trumpism is threatening all of that. It is primarily about the acquisition of power—power for its own sake. It's a multifront assault to make the earth a playground for ruthless men.
So far, we have treated the various assaults of President Donald Trump as a series of different attacks. But these are not separate battles; this effort seeks to undo parts of civilizational order.
