When Worlds Collide

It feels like the gap has widened significantly between these two planes of reality within the last week or so. The demolition of the East Wing of the White House seems like the sort of thing that would generate 128-point font headlines for weeks had it been the handiwork of terrorists, a foreign adversary, or let’s be honest: a Democrat. Can you imagine if Hillary Clinton had torn down a huge chunk of the White House without permission? Seriously, can you even imagine the response? Yet a few prominent pundits and editorial boards were just fine with Trump reducing a large portion of the people’s house to rubble. I’m pretty sure the Washington Post of 25 years ago would not have been so nonchalant.
