Juan Williams: A bad moon on the rise
msn ^ | Juan Williams

In the words of Creedence Clearwater Revival, "I see a bad moon rising."

My fear comes from watching a scary alliance taking shape on the far-right.

It begins with President Trump, who is falling farther and farther behind former Vice President Biden, his presumptive Democratic opponent. Biden led Trump by 12 points in a Fox News poll last week.

Feeling political heat, Trump is resorting to dividing and scaring people while posing as the strong man needed to satisfy what he calls the American public's "demand [for] law and order."

Just last week, Facebook took down several Trump campaign ads because they featured a Nazi symbol.

My anxiety goes even higher as white militants, some waving Trump flags, are becoming more public and more violent to people marching for racial justice.

And then there are the rising threats from police unions.

In the face of rising calls for police reform, police unions are now politically aligned with Trump.

In a clear slap at people protesting police brutality, Trump said last week the real problem is that the "police have not been treated fairly."

This rising alliance of Trump, white militants and angry police unions fits with Trump's long expressed desire to have men with guns on his side.

The Trump administration used a mix of several federal police agencies - armed with tear gas and smoke bombs - to disrupt a peaceful protest in Lafayette Square this month, all so Trump could take a campaign-style picture in front of a nearby church.

That brutal use of police power could well be a preview of more ugly conflict around the country as protests, political rallies, conventions and the November election approach.

Biden said he may have to deploy the military or law enforcement to forcibly remove Trump from the White House.
