Noam Chomsky on Trump's Troop Surge to Democratic Cities & Whether He'll Leave Office if He Loses

President Trump is desperate,” says world-renowned dissident Professor Noam Chomsky in an extended interview that begins with President Trump’s vow to send a “surge” of federal agents into major Democrat-run cities across the United States. “His entire attention is this one issue on his mind: that’s the election. He has to cover up for the fact he is personally responsible for killing tens of thousands of Americans. It’s impossible to conceal that for much longer.”

People keep saying “oh, kids don’t get infected” but they’re forgetting WHY kids haven’t been getting infected yet: they’re the most isolated. We took them out of school and away from friends early; they’re not going to work in public; they’re not going to bars.

When these kids go back to school, their infections will skyrocket. There will be deaths. There will be permanent damage; there will be kids on ventilators. And though he will try to pass the blame on, I don’t think he can on this one. He’s tied that albatross around his neck TIGHT.
