That is a fascinating insight. I have been wondering what motivated Lynch to put out such a subversive video. It’s hardly what would be expected of a former AG. Your explanation seems to fit perfectly. It all makes sense.
You’re right about Trump. He’d have ~zero tolerance for brownshirt tactics. It underscores the desperation on Obama’s side, that they wouldn’t anticipate his reaction. He would crush them like bugs.
(2) The racial narrative, which takes actual policies out of a broader context, and hence distorts them;
(3) The fantasy that Obama & the Leftwing of the Democratic Party, actually give more than a compulsive--but still calculated--gesture for the rights of minorities & Civil Liberties.
To see what has been really going on, one has to recognize that when you are dealing with those with little or no moral compass, virtually everything is driven by tactical not philosophic considerations. The only thing that is consistent is an unacceptable end--that is unacceptable to people who really care about right & wrong.
