The challenge for the American left is how to turn callous, inhuman provocation (like the treatment of families at the border) into something that harms Trump instead of helping him. Losing the election will really harm Trump, so how do we get there? How do we persuade people?

So we have concentration camps for kids and you’re saying that we should ignore the parallels because there’s no mass graves yet and there’s no political extremism in the streets?

We do not have concentration camps for kids. I'm saying we should look for more fruitful parallels in our own history, that can teach us how to win in a difficult political moment.
