Trump Is More Like Wallace Than Nixon
Political Wireby Taegan Goddard

“President Trump said last month that he had ‘learned a lot from Richard Nixon,’ and many interpreted his hard-line response to the street protests of recent days as a homage of sorts to the 1968 campaign. The president’s Twitter feed has been filled with phrases famous from the Nixon lexicon like ‘LAW & ORDER’ and even ‘SILENT MAJORITY,'” the New York Times reports.

“But if anything, Mr. Trump seems to be occupying the political lane held that year by George Wallace, the segregationist former governor of Alabama who ran as a third-party candidate to the right of Nixon. While he does not share Wallace’s extreme positions, Mr. Trump is running hard on a combative pro-police, anti-protester platform, appealing to Americans turned off by unrest in the streets.”
