From The Guardian US...
Quote:
“Trump is the mainstream,” said Allan Lichtman, distinguished professor of history at American University, pointing out that “so-called mainstream Republicans” such as Liz Cheney are now out of office.
Lichtman, who wrote The Keys to the White House, which breaks down a prediction system for determining the outcome of presidential elections, said there was no polarization within the Republican party and denied Trump is not a real conservative. Trump’s policies are an “absolute culmination of 100 years of Republican tradition”, he said. Lichtman compared Trump’s demonization of Muslims with the Republican party’s demonization of Catholics and Jews during the 1920s. Trump’s base wants him to be a bully, he said: they don’t care about his infidelities or sexual assault allegations.
