‘Hate acts follow hate speech’

On Monday in one of his rallies Trump came out of the closet as a Nationalist and proud of it, and by Wednesday an unidentified MAGABomber has sent at least seven bombs to Democrats that Trump for two years has attacked in his hate speeches. We did not arrive here out of anywhere, the Trump phenomena started as a charismatic populist who said what a lot of people had been waiting to hear, the GOP was fascinated and thought they could mold this candidate once he was in power and that responsibility would bear on him. It clearly did not, Trump’s father was KKK and after Charlottesville it became clear that Trump himself uses the language of white supremacy and does not take a stance against open racism. His hate for Hillary and “here emails” is a theme on each and every rally, and he is obviously obsessed with erasing the legacy of Obama while he frequently blames Soros for funding the Democrats and all that he does not like.

“The enemy of the people” that is how the American President refers to the press in general and Trump specific names New York Times, CNN and The Washington Post as his favorite targets, the latest being a “disgrace to journalism”. Words have consequences and these strong words may have encouraged Mohammed bin Salman to think he could get away from making Jamal Khashoggi disappear at the consulate in Turkey.

Donald Trump was inaugurated on January 20. 2017, February 22, The Washington Post began using a new slogan on its website;

Today, someone was inspired to try to assassinate two former Presidents, a former Sec. of State, a former AG, a sitting Congresswoman, former CIA head, the NY Governor & Democratic Party donor. Trump is now on his way to another of his nationalist rallies where he stirs up hate.

While some fans copy the Presidents cropping habits NRA lobbyist Dana Loesch says Trump supporters and gun owners may need to bring guns to polls to “protect themselves from progressives”. The US could face a new civil war if this development continues.
