Donald Trump Jr. is working to translate the combative, anti-liberal MAGA ethos for internet-savvy nonboomers
Donald Trump Jr. wasn’t freelancing when he came in swinging during his appearance last week on “The View,” accusing Joy Behar of wearing blackface and Whoopi Goldberg of excusing Roman Polanski’s alleged sexual assault of a minor.a showcase for the well-rehearsed role he has been playing for internet-savvy culture warriors and on the campaign trail: translating the combative, anti-liberal MAGA ethos for nonboomers.
“When you see Don speak at a college, he doesn’t come across like a buttoned-up politician guy,” said one person close to Trump Jr. “It doesn’t come across like a phony news anchor. He comes across like a guy shooting the shit on a podcast.” A podcast that is now, incidentally, spreading pro-Trump content.
The rest of the interview continued in the same vein. Trump Jr. belittled his hosts over their past liberal misdeeds — alleged blackface, comments about film director Polanski — declaring that he was fighting back against the media on behalf of conservatives. By infuriating “The View” hosts, Trump Jr. may have opened himself up to condemnation from mainstream journalists, but created a work of #triggering performance theater in the process — one that was broadcast on network television, went viral among die-hard Trumpists, and, more importantly, landed on the radar of the increasingly young free speech crowd on the internet.Trump Jr.
Trump Jr. went to a Turning Point event at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he happily took on what he thought was a group of liberal students screaming at him to take questions.
