President Trump defended the West and was reviled as a racist.  That slur is nothing but  a meaningless bludgeon. Can’t tell the difference between the West and the Rest?  Just try using a public bathroom in Bahawalpur and then do the same in Boston. Still not sure?  Okay, time to get dramatic.  Break your leg on the street in Lagos, and then do the same (the other leg) in London.  Getting the idea?  Just try buying a home or starting a business in Teheran and then try it in Tallahassee.  So if the West deteriorates and dies, it is not only bad for you and me,  it is even worse for millions of other human beings.
