Opinion: Identity Politics Backfires
In this highly divisive election, many editorials pointed out the problem of identity politics, how it causes problems for the Democratic Party, worsens race relations and belittles many other segments of Americans, if not everyone. Some saw it as a key driving force that backfired against Democrats and Hillary Clinton to elect Donald Trump. Some called for an end to identity liberalism.

Identity politics is turning violent

The Curse of Identity Politics
Yesterday morning, President Trump circulated a video showing a pitched battle at The Villages: a verbal battle between pro-Trumpers and anti-Trumpers. The Villages is a retirement community in Florida, billed as the state’s “Friendliest Hometown.”

An Identity Crisis of a Decade
A transgender “man” just gave birth to a child named Jamie in Great Britain fathered by a transgender “woman.” This seems a fitting coda to the 2010s.
The decade in search of an identity passes mercifully at midnight. It began with the first black president. It ended with the first orange president. Many of the same people who voted for hope and change cast ballots to make America great
