THERE IS NO “BOTH SIDES” TO DONALD TRUMP’S THREAT TO DEMOCRACY

Just because Republicans choose unreality doesn’t mean the media should ignore
the facts of January 6.

On January 6, 2021, I watched CNN as thousands of Donald Trump supporters
stormed the US Capitol. As someone well-versed in watching tragedy on
television, I was struck by just how indisputable the facts were at the time:
violent, red-hat-clad MAGA rioters, followed by Republicans in Congress, tried
to stop democracy in its tracks. Trump had told his followers that the protest
in Washington, DC, “will be wild,” and in the assault that followed his speech,
some rioters smeared feces on the walls of the Capitol. Hundreds of them have
since been convicted on charges ranging from assault on federal officers to
seditious conspiracy. These are stubborn facts, the kind that do not care about
your feelings. These facts include the inalienable truth that Trump is the first
president in American history to reject the peaceful transfer of power.

It never occurred to me that these facts could somehow be perverted by
partisanship. But three years later, we are seeing just that, as Republicans
cling to the lie that the 2020 election was “stolen” by Joe Biden and are poised
to make Trump their 2024 nominee. And perhaps even more dangerous than the GOP
ditching reality is the news media’s inability to cover Trumpism as the threat
to democracy that it very much is.

I had to read this headline last week from the Associated Press several times
because I was sure I’d had it wrong: “One attack, two interpretations: Biden and
Trump both make the Jan. 6 riot a political rallying cry.” Later in the piece
appeared the line: Biden has “repeatedly characterized Trump as a threat to
democracy.” Biden had characterized Trump that way? Well, there’s a reason for
that! It’s because Trump is a threat to democracy. Meanwhile, The New York Times
offered this headline: “Trump Responds to Biden’s Speech Calling Him a Threat to
Democracy,” which was apparently changed—though not for the better—to “Trump
Accuses Biden of ‘Fearmongering’ After Speech About Democracy.” And perhaps the
most offensive headline both-sidesing reality was from USA Today: “Biden and
Trump’s split over Jan. 6 is as divisive as it is for voters.”



The facts of January 6 and its aftermath should be clear to any journalist who
simply watched the events that day—and especially if they watched the damning
House committee hearings or followed the exhaustive reporting since. It’s not
Biden’s opinion that Trump is a threat. It’s not my opinion. It’s a fact. The
guy who told Sean Hannity he wanted to be a “dictator” for his first day in
office is, in fact, a threat to democracy. Liz Cheney warned that electing Trump
again would be “sleepwalking into dictatorship,” and Chris Christie said that
Trump “acts like someone who wants to be a dictator” because he “doesn't care
about our democracy,” adding: “He acts like someone who wants to be a dictator.
He acts like someone who doesn’t care for the Constitution."



But the problem is, when all you have is conventional political framing,
everything looks like politics as usual. One candidate makes a claim; the other
disputes it. Two sides are divided, etc. This framing only works if both parties
operate within the frameworks of a shared reality. But Trumpism doesn’t allow
for the reality the rest of us inhabit. Trump’s supporters believe their
leader’s reality and not, say, the reality the rest of us see with our eyes. As
Trump once told a crowd: “Don’t believe the crap you see from these people, the
fake news. What you’re seeing and what you’re reading is not what’s happening.”

Journalists may be well-intentioned in trying to be “objective,” or they’re
simply afraid of being labeled partisan. Either way, coverage of January 6 that
gives equal weight to both sides—one based in reality, one not—is helping pave
the road for authoritarianism.



History shows us that conventional framing enables extremism by making it seem
like politics as usual; the Times infamously once ran this headline: “Hitler
Tamed by Prison; Released on Parole, He Is Expected to Return to Austria.” Jason
Stanley, a Yale professor and author of How Fascism Works, texted me:
“Conventional political framing is by definition conventional. It is therefore
totally inadequate for unconventional times. It makes a false presupposition of
normality, that its audience is therefore invited to accept.”

Trump is such a powerful figure in the Republican Party that he’s all but
flattened his political rivals. Perhaps motivated by Trump’s popularity in
polls, these political rivals have accepted Trump’s version of reality; with the
notable exception of Christie, they have largely gone along with his lie that
the election was stolen. The fact that so few of Trump’s primary challengers
condemned his lies has created an entire ecosystem of Republican candidates
occupying Trump’s bizarro Earth Two, all in the slim hope of lulling away
Trump’s primary voters with their own muted version of Trump’s own autocratic
impulses. I wondered months back if the 2024 pack would ever really take on
Trump, and now a week before Iowa, it looks like that’ll never happen.

In Iowa on Saturday, Trump said that the rioters acted “patriotically and
peacefully” on January 6, and those in jail are “hostages.” He added, “They
ought to release the J6 hostages. They’ve suffered.” I’m no criminal lawyer, but
isn’t going to prison for crimes generally how all this works? Describing such
people as “hostages” is the latest example of Trump pushing a version of events
divorced from reality—one that some in his party were quick to promote. Like
clockwork, Republican congresswoman (and veep contender) Elise Stefanik told
NBC’s Kristen Welker, “I have concerns about the treatment of January 6
hostages.”

Every time elected Republicans repeat a Trump lie, the schism between reality
and Trumpian reality grows. By endorsing Trump’s unreality, Republicans are
effectively endorsing Trump’s autocratic nature in which everything he says is
to be believed, no matter how baseless or just plain bonkers. But of all Trump’s
many lies, his bogus claims about the 2020 election and the events of January 6
are the most dangerous for the future of democracy.

The current president, meanwhile, remains clear-eyed about this tragic day. 

“We saw with our own eyes the violent mob storm the United States Capitol,”
Biden said in a Friday speech pegged to the three-year anniversary. “It was
almost in disbelief as you first turned on the television. For the first time in
our history, insurrectionists had come to stop the peaceful transfer, transfer
of power, in America. First time. Smashing windows, shattering doors, attacking
the police. Outside, gallows were erected as the MAGA crowd chanted, ‘Hang Mike
Pence.’ Inside, they hunted for Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi. The House was chanting
as they marched through and smashed windows, ‘Where’s Nancy?’ Over 140 police
officers were injured.”

This isn’t Biden’s opinion, or his side. It’s what happened.
