Donald Trump's definition of a "unified America" is autocracy. Period. No judicial independence (see SCOTUS and Cannon both immunizing their king). No legislative independence (they are his serfs). No independent media (MSNBC runs scared). The academy under attack. This is "unity" by force: totalitarianism. It is happening now. But this week, I guarantee witless news media will take Trump at his word and parrot that word--unity--without understanding its meaning.
