President Trump’s moves against Harvard University for discrimination have spread horror among the liberal elite, including those on publicly funded television. Christiane Amanpour, host of Amanpour & Co., a version of which airs on PBS after running on CNN International, talked to Harvard professor Steven Levitsky, coauthor of How Democracies Die. (Hint: He’s talking about Trump.)
A full 21 minutes of the Friday show was devoted to defending Harvard by attacking Trump as a resurrected Joe McCarthy, rantings that Amanpour infused with self-congratulation, even airing a segment of her own recent self-righteous graduation speech in which she regaled a captive audience at Harvard with similar comparisons.
