تابع للمقتطفات من مقال سلمان رشدي الأخير:
His security forces attack a peaceful protest with tear gas/rubber bullets. He describes the demonstrators as terrorists and their protests as crimes against God. He then holds up a Bible outside a church to demonstrate his piety […] We are so inured to Trump’s lies, his inexhaustible self-regard, his stupidity […] But this time, something different is happening. The uprising that began with George Floyd’s killing is not fizzling but growing. Trump is scared, and even takes refuge in the basement. […] He will be on his way to despotism. He has threatened to use the Army against American citizens, a threat one might have expected from a leader of the former SU, but not of the US. In my most recent novel, Quichotte, I characterized the present moment as the (Age of Anything-Can-Happen). Today I say, beware, America. Don’t believe that it can’t happen here.
