I despise political correctness, whether it comes in the form of calling illegal immigrants “undocumented” (as if they merely forgot their papers at home) or Yale students shrieking about emails concerning Halloween costumes. That’s exactly what President Obama, supposedly captive to political correctness, did earlier this year in a commencement address at Rutgers University. Besides, Trump’s solutions to the problems he believes are aggravated by political correctness would only exacerbate them. His approach to fighting the Islamic State, meanwhile, consists of allying with the Assad regime in Syria (and, by implication, its Iranian patrons), encouraging the impression that the U.S. is picking favorites among Islamic sects. Many, if not most, Trump supporters, especially those “alt-right,” self-proclaimed “free-speech activists,” want a Provocateur-in-Chief, not a president.
