Donald Trump is a uniquely American threat to America. He has been tearing the country apart for five years. He wants Muslim bans and registries, to deport millions of immigrants, block all refugees, and turn all cops into deportation police.
Trump encourages killing Democrats, police brutality, violence at rallies and against journalists. His dictatorial ambitions have been naked from the start, declaring I alone at the Republican National Convention in 2016.
Trump trashes international alliances, tears up treaties, vows to deconstruct the administrative state, and purge the deep state.

Trump was never going to Make America Great Again. Turning the clock back is impossible. Instead he is trying to end America and replace it with a twisted vision of strongmen, white vigilantism, second-class women and Blacks, and ethnic cleansing.

(6,144 posts)Back when white men ruled the nation with impunity; back when women were subservient to their husbands and couldn't even vote.
Back when a black man could be killed, or a black woman could be raped, without any concern that a white man would get punished for it.
And now we see Trump planning to give a speech on racial issues in Tulsa, OK. That's the place where whites people went on a rampage in 1921 in the black section of Greenwood, killing black people and burning their businesses.
Could Trump scream "I am a racist" any more loudly?
