The Trump administration has previously repeatedly held the president’s critics and the media responsible for the escalation of political tension in the country.

On the other hand, the president’s opponents believe that the responsibility lies with his inflammatory rhetoric that he resorts to against his opponents, immigrants, and the election system.
