ast amount of time and energy has been spent examining all the ways in which Donald Trump is bad for America and the world. There is a voluminous anti-Trump literature, consisting of dozens of books and innumerable newspaper and magazine articles; here at Current Affairs, we’ve contributed to it ourselves on many occasions. You can find every flavor of anti-Trump argument somewhere in print. Trump is bad because he’s a predatory misogynist, says one writer. Trump is bad because he’s a raving Islamophobe, says another. Or perhaps Trump is bad because he lies a lot, or because he’s a spoiled rich kid who doesn’t really know much about the economy, or because his speeches resemble those of a cult leader. All true, and all important. But there’s an underrated aspect of Trump’s manifold awfulness, one the liberal press has mostly neglected. Along with the rest of it, Trump is a noxious, corrupting influence on this country because he’s a landlord, and they’re all like that.
