COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE BY JONATHAN FREEDLAND IN THE
GUARDIAN
Trump’s fascist
contagion gives the anti-Brexit cause what it lacked: an emotional heart
"Trump’s fascist contagion"
Sorry, but I seriously object to that choice of words.
I don't like Trump. I am disappointed in Trump. Trump is
indeed a failed President.
But that does not warrant that kind of rhetoric.
The excess here reminds me very much of the days, not so
very long ago, when The Guardian went into full McCarthyite attack mode against
non-existent anti-Semitism in Jeremy Corbyn's Labour Party.
Jonathan Freedland, regrettably, was a leader there also.
