Interview: How David Horowitz Sees 2020
“Our system in United States is set up in a way that forces us to compromise. The Founders thought the great threat to a democracy is factionalism.”
“Our system in United States is set up in a way that forces us to compromise. The Founders thought the great threat to a democracy is factionalism.”
On June 25th, Merion West‘s Kevin Turner interviewed David Horowitz, an American conservative writer and activist. Mr. Horowitz is the founder of the David Horowitz Freedom Center think tank, which publishes FrontPage Magazine, a conservative news and commentary site. He is also the author of a number of books, including Radical Son: A Generational Odyssey, The Black Book of the American Left, and Blitz: Trump Will Smash the Left and Win.
During the course of the conversation, Mr. Horowitz, an outspoken conservative, provides his unique opinions on the state of the country today.
On perceived threats to the freedom of speech in America, Mr. Horowitz contends that the danger is coming from the Left. He says:
“[The Republican Party] does not criminalize thoughts, but the Democrat Party has criminalized thoughts. Once you do that, it is easy so say anybody disagrees with you is committing a hate crime, and they manage to do it.”
