David Gergen, on CNN, following President Donald Trump’s speech on Saturday night, April 29, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania:

“To bring your campaign speech into the presidency is something presidents rarely do. This was, this was the most divisive speech I’ve ever heard from a sitting American president. Others may disagree about that. He played to his base and he treated his other listeners — the rest of the people who have been disturbed about him or oppose him – he treated them basically as I don’t care, I don’t give a damn what you think because you’re frankly like the enemy. You’re like the enemy with the press. I thought it was a deeply disturbing speech in that regard.”
