It's a demonstration of the snowflake mythology of the Trumpist right: they need to believe that, rather than them and their lickspittle allies firmly gripping the levers of power, they're the victims. Minnie Donnie's book was the same: he whines all the way through about how the evil lefties aren't allowing him to speak while he's just published a book, he's on a nationwide promotional tour and he's constantly all over the media, and meanwhile his demented fool of a windbag father never fucking shuts up for a moment.
It's all taken straight from the first chapter of Authoritarian Government for Dummies: "Find an enemy. If you don't have one, manufacture one. Keeping your supporters focused on fighting this enemy will prevent them from noticing your shortcomings as a leader. Even if many of the aims of the enemy you've created align with the best interests of your supporters, they will remain loyal to you if you repeatedly demonise your enemy and have no qualms about lying about them."
Do most Democrats hate America?
