By the time you read this, the latest brouhaha will undoubtedly be history ― or do I mean “fake history”? It will have been replaced by an explosion of media coverage about some other nightmarish set of presidential tweets or comments. One of those videos of hers supposedly showed a “Muslim immigrant” in Holland beating up a boy on crutches. There’s method, however intuitive, in Trump’s madness, in those endless tweetish controversies, in his regular immersion in conspiracies (think: birtherism), implosions that plunge the president and his 43.6 million Twitter followers into a deep, dark world alive with horror and terror, whether of the Muslim or even the football variety. So don’t expect the president’s outbursts, his Islamophobic tweets or any of the rest of it to end soon.
