President Barack Obama was first inaugurated in January 2009 on a Tuesday — the day after Martin Luther King Jr. Day was observed.
Donald Trump’s second inauguration will fall exactly on Martin Luther King Jr. Day — and that, too, has a profound meaning. Yes, his character — his consistent pattern, throughout his life, of choosing his friends and business associates based on factors other than their superficial attributes. Trump strikes his post-modern “woke” opponents as racist, but not because he actually thinks in terms of race. Rather, his thoroughlyapproach to race upholds old-fashioned ideals of color-blindness and equality for which King stood, but which were overtaken by radicalism and “equity.
In that sense, the American people ratified the original vision of Dr. King, which — like every true civil rights movement in our history — sought to restore and fulfill our ideals, not to overthrow them.
