Norman Lear a man who has lit up, and greatly influenced, our television sets, has recently compared Donald Trump to a real life Archie Bunker. Archie Bunker as in the conservative bigot from the hit television show 'All in the Family'. Mr. Lear also stated that it should be bipartisan agreement that a Donald Trump presidency is bad for America. Some might expect comments like this from Mr. Lear, considering his liberal background and portrayal of conservatives on television, but some might think he would totally oppose Donald Trump, due to Mr. Lear's comments on politically correct television and Donald Trump's tirade against political correctness.
Norman Lear's anti-p.c. sentiments were expressed several months ago on Rough Draft, a program hosted by Reza Aslan. In his interview with Aslan he said:
“I don’t think the narrow point of view serves the American people well,"
But it seems he has backtracked his statements by saying we live in the "Golden Age" of TV. It almost seems the establishment has Mr. Lear by the collar on a short rope.
