Mr. Stephens basic premise: President Trump and United States Elizabeth Warren’s recent “rigged” comments are eerily similar, in a mirror-image/left-right-paradigm sort of way.

 

For example, how both President Trump and Senator Warren want you to know that our system is “rigged.”

 

“At some point, it will be worth asking Senator Warren: rigged compared to when?”

“A generation ago a black president would have been unthinkable.  Two generations ago, a woman on the Supreme Court.  And rigged compared to what?  Electoral politics in Japan, which have been dominated by a single party for decades?  The class system in Brazil, dominated by a single race for centuries?”
