Peter Baker: Americans Are More Afraid of Each Other than They Are of a Foreign Terrorist

EXCERPT:

BAKER: “Today, if you look at the polls, what we see is that Americans today are more afraid of each other than they are of foreign threats, right? The poll by 'Reuters' and Ipsos that came out this week showed that by a 2-1 margin, when asked which ideological threat do you think is greater to the Americans today, by 2-1 they said domestic terrorism over foreign terrorism. And we've seen that in the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the conservative activist. We saw that in the murder of the Minnesota state legislator, in the attack on the Capitol on January 6th, in attacks on synagogues and so forth. So we're at time where the nature of the threat has changed and I think that we are more divided than before and that's part of the threat right now.”
