On Tuesday night, Fox News host Will Cain said on Tucker Carlson Tonight that the US suffering from a divide between the elites in power and those who question the government.
Cain said, "A day after the FBI’s raid on former president Donald Trump we are starting to see what a permanent national split looks like. A divorce. Nobody wants to say it out loud, but it’s true. And this is not simply a break between Democrats and Republicans."
"No, that’s too simple," he continued. "What we are seeing is a divide between people who are willing to use the power of the state to silence their opponents and those who are unwilling."
Cain added, "What’s held this country together since the Civil War? It’s not the federal code, it’s not even the Bill of Rights, as important as that document is."
"Remember, the Soviet Union had a bill of rights. It guaranteed freedom of speech and equal rights. But in practice, the Bolsheviks assassinated their political opponents and sent their dissidents to the gulags."
"What’s kept us functioning through the centuries where the Bolsheviks failed is that our Constitution separated powers and prevented a 'Uniparty.' We also had an understanding that state power shall not be used for improper political purposes."
"The law must be enforced equally, without political considerations. And once you lose that common understanding, it’s mutually assured destruction. Nobody had any reason to uphold the system, so the system will collapse."
