'He just doesn't get it': has Trump been left behind by America's awakening on racism?
The killing of George Floyd has been a turning point for for everyone but the
president ? who has seldom been so isolated from his own party and the public

George Floydの事件以降、アメリカの人種問題への取り組みが大きく変化したのだが
トランプ大統領は気づいていない。彼は取り残されているかに見える。
George Floydの死は大統領以外の全ての人にとってターニング・ポイントとなったが
そのために、トランプは公衆からも共和党からも、かっていないほどに孤立している

Now, perhaps for the first time, it seems the US president may have lost the room.
Trump’s sixth sense for striking populist notes appears to have deserted him in
the wake of the death of George Floyd, an African American man killed when a
white Minneapolis police officer kneeled on his neck for nearly nine minutes,
sparking Black Lives Matter protests nationwide.

Over the last three weeks the president has found himself on the wrong side of
public opinion ? and history ? on everything from police reform to symbols of
the Confederacy which fought a civil war to preserve slavery 150 years ago.
Even a sport synonymous with his base, Nascar (National Association for Stock
Car Auto Racing), is on a different wavelength having banned the Confederate
flag from its events.

Tara Setmayer, a political commentator and former Republican communications
director on Capitol Hill, said: “Anyone who knows the history of this country
has to acknowledge that systemic racism is the original American sin.
“There is a considerable amount of Donald Trump’s base that harbours these
types of antiquated, bigoted attitudes toward minorities in this country.
He began his entire campaign with the baseless racist birtherism charge against
Obama and going after Mexicans as rapists and criminals and he is ginning up
that sentiment. There’s a reason why the racists and white supremacists of
this country support Donald Trump. Why is that?”
