They want these people DEAD. Not “deported”, not incarcerated, not isolated…DEAD. They don’t admire the Nazis of WWII for their uniforms and disciplined adulation of the Fuhrer, they love the thought of concentration camps and crematoria.

that he said “they are eating the pets of people who live there”. The Haitians live there too but they aren’t people to him.

It is not in their nature to see others as people, they just can't do it. Before the Tea Party it was just there but not as obvious. It was always "Them", "What about Them?"

But there is another class in the U.S. besides White and Non-White, it is wealth. The wealthy see the non wealthy as things that want to take away the wealth from them. They do not trust the non-wealthy.

They went all out to commit genocide by slaughtering an estimated 30-60 Million Native Americans......

And to think that Hitler was deemed a monster for 6 million.............

How quickly people forget.....if they ever even knew.....sure wasn't in our history books we studied......

He thinks the world ends when he dies. But he probably doesn't think he'll die.

As a malignant narcissist, he is the only person that is of any importance to himself. He only likes people who are useful to him. He may feel possessive over people, like objects, but he doesn't see humanity as any importance.

He thinks everyone else is stupid except for a few dictators who have everyone worshipping them. He wants that kind of worship too. But he would rather see everyone suffering, because they aren't real people. AND he wants their worship like Putin and Xi Jinping.

Parents who lost their children at
Newtown CT, Virginia Tech, Parkland, Uvalde, Columbine, and sadly so many others that I don’t remember by name, plus the pulse night club, the Las Vegas Concert , the grocery store in Buffalo and the Walmart in Tx and the Church in South Carolina. The list goes on and on. All those people would like to hold their loved ones close but they can not because of gun laws or lack of them that you support.

My state hasn’t had a Republican senator since 1/3/1987.

And you are correct about Vance- he is a cruel, evil person.

looking at the donald and getting excited, seeing AND knowing how old Trump is. “Hey, this old yellow-haired geezer could kick the bucket any minute now! And then I’D be President!!!”

I can’t help but suspect that, deep down, Vance joined the ticket for THAT EXACT reason. THAT was the deciding factor.

Sorry for the language, but he is such a nasty (to use Trump's words) person.
He's one of these people that thinks the world revolves around them, and they are the only ones who can talk about responding to bad things that happen to them and their people, when, you know, he creates the conditions where bad things are part of the "norm".

I'd call him a turd, but that maligns all good, satisfying turds from all those who give them back to the environment as part of their normal biological functions.

every fucking day hoping this is NOT the day that somebody, probably an angry white male, mows them down with an assault weapon, followed by the GQP yawning and Vance calling school massacres “a fact of life.”

They have been screwed for a couple of centuries. Do you remember Papa Doc for Life followed by Baby Doc for Life and their Ton Ton Macout? That was a horrifying time and I don't think it has ever gotten the least bit better.
