Former Bush Speechwriter Warns That Trump’s Second Term Would Be The Beginning of The End for Freedom in America

Former President Donald Trump is arguably the most controversial president the country has ever seen. Countless politicians and political experts have spoken up in interviews or articles about Trump over the years.

Most recently, David Frum, a former speechwriter for President George W. Bush speechwriter, shared some of his thoughts about Trump. He wrote in The Atlantic what some have called a serious alarm to Americans.

He says that if Donald Trump gets elected for a second term, it could end the freedom in the United States as we know it.

Frum points to some concerning plans supported by Trump’s allies, like Jeffrey Clark, a former official at the Department of Justice. Clark wants to use the Insurrection Act to stop protests from the opposition.

According to Frum, if Trump goes ahead with this plan, it could be really bad news for the Americans – like a death sentence.

“If a president can summon an investigation of his opponents, or summon the military to put down protests, then suddenly our society would no longer be free,” he writes. “There would be no more law, only legalized persecution of political opponents. It has always been Trump’s supreme political wish to wield both the law and institutional violence as personal weapons of power—a wish that many in his party now seem determined to help him achieve.”

Additionally, Frum argues that given what’s at stake. If Trump wins in 2024, America’s future could become bleak, with little hope.

“It would mark the turn onto a dark path, one of these rips between ‘before’ and ‘after’ that a society can never reverse,” he writes. “Even if the harm is contained, it can never be fully undone, as the harm of January 6, 2021, can never be undone. The long tradition of peaceful transitions of power was broken that day, and even though the attempt to stop the transition by violence was defeated, the violence itself was not expunged.”

Frum describes Trump as someone who “operates so far outside the normal bounds of human behavior.” “What’s more, we have experienced one Trump presidency already. We can take false comfort from the previous experience: we’ve lived through it once. American democracy survived. Maybe the danger is less than feared?”

Frum says that Trump’s first term didn’t allow him to be corrupt and brutal because he was lazy and ignorant. A second term could enable him to exploit weaknesses in the system and take revenge on the opposition. “When people wonder what another Trump term might hold, their minds underestimate the chaos that would lie ahead,” Frum wrote.

When Election Day comes in 2024, former president Donald Trump will be busy appearing in court for his criminal trials. It’s also possible that they would have lost one of them. And if he wins the race to the White House, his second term would most likely take Americans down a path that is “more terrible than anything seen since the Civil War.”
