“Beginning on January 20 2017, safety will be restored,” Donald Trump vowed as he accepted the nomination as the Republican candidate for president.

Trump had campaigned on fear. His speeches warned of the danger of undocumented immigrants and Muslim refugees, of the civil rights protesters whose demonstrations against police killings of unarmed black Americans had sparked “violence in our streets and chaos in our communities”.

“This American carnage stops right here and stops right now,” he said at his inauguration.

But, almost 400 days into his presidency, it is difficult to argue safety has been restored.

During his short tenure America has endured three of the worst mass shootings in modern US history, carried out not by jihadists, or immigrant gang members, but by disturbed white Americans.

The president who promised to guard against outsider threats now finds his favorite conservative tabloid begging him to for action on America’s domestic violence.
