Why have so many liberals and progressives felt shocked by the first two months of the second Trump Administration?
Why, instead, did so many assume that "they would never do that?"
In this short solo episode, I offer a possible answer. Liberals and progressives have a massive blind spot. They don't know who and what they are dealing with—namely, a worldview that is deeply entrenched in human culture yet widely misunderstood: the warlord or warrior.
Once they see it, they—and conservatives committed to prudence, humility, and order—can abandon failed strategies and craft new ones.
