The speaker David Horowitz offers his call to the cleaning policy of the higher education environment on Tuesday in the Tivoli on the Campus of AuriaThe deceased David Horowitz, who died in April at age 86, was dismissed as a marginal figure not only by liberals and leftist, but even many to the right. Horowitz would complain or complain that his books, raw controversies with titles such as Blitz: Trump will crush on the left and win (2020) and The enemy inside: how a totalitarian movement is destroying America (2021) – They were ignored by respectable conservative publications such as National Review and Comment. Horowitz did one thing well: that both his friends and enemies underestimated him. In truth, as David Klion points out in an obitarian for The nationHorowitz, despite its entire premiere and absurd, had an enormous influence on right -wing policy and deserves to be seen as a precursor to Trumpism. Among other infamy statements, Horowitz was the mentor of Trump’s anti-immigration advisor, Stephen Miller.
I talked to David about the long shadow of Horowitz and the tumultuous journey of being a red dialon baby to a new left radical to a right -wing polemicist who tried to revive the same McCarthism that damaged the life of his parents. Horowitz left a terrible legacy, but it was also a figure whose impact cannot be ignored.
