The intention of the author is very clear in the content. He is trying to alarm the people who are still unaware, with the dialogue; to provoke confrontation against the white nationalism, with the belief to the public opinion. The reporter in the video is also trying to take advantage of the shooting incident in New Zealand today, guiding the president to admit the white nationalism is rising a threat. However, Trump is so experienced that avoids direct answers to the questions, leaves the questions unresponsive.
Looking back in American history, the rise of populism is often related to the political crisis that has not been resolved in society. In the meantime, populist politics happens in the conflict between the public and the elite, which is an appeal that can not be reached easily under the existing political structure. Whereas, this is exact American politics, has the parties fight against each other, to restrict each other on policies and behaviors, then make compromise and cooperation.
According to Media Bias/Fact Check, HuffPost is rated Left-Biased due to story selection that favors the left and factually High due to proper sourcing of information. In logical, it is understandable for its view and reports differ from the populist politics representative president Trump, the right.
However, in my opinion, a small number of crazy nationalists killed other people is definitely a horrible serious incident. In the general trend of political realignment, to promote the amendment to the current American gun control policy is more efficient, rather than to just blame the president for his populist politics.
In summary, Trump is believed as an out-and-out populist politician. The populist in the United States is believed rebelling against elite politics. The hate in between parties is growing, and covering the mid-term election in the United States as many people are concerned, a new civil war is looming.
