Remember when America used to be wholesome and free?

Remember the good old days when we put thousands of Japanese-Americans into camps then steal their property and take over their businesses?

Remember the simpler times when we would forcefully sterilize blacks, subject them to deadly government experiments, make them sit at the back of the bus and even kill them if they tried to go to college?

Remember those wholesome good times when we would lobotomize young women for being free spirits, expressing independence and believing in self worth?

If you do remember those times and look at them fondly then join Donald J Trump in making America white ...great again.

lower place in white America for "the others"
Sorry just a little bit of fairness,science and diversity since back then (and i mean little small steps and so much more to come in our positive future) has been viewed by his voters (Cruz's too)as the destruction of their lives and culture This means losing control and at the same time leaving them free of responsibility on how their life turned out, The others

True they need "the help" but it could be no other than white christian straights in their crazy mind and clumsily will try to achieve it if they can rope in enough followers

Trump is allowed by society to say things most societies should question and they allow it to evolve to fascism being an accepted choice

Undaunted, on 20 February 1939, Kuhn held the largest and most publicized rally in the Bund's history at Madison Square Garden in New York City.[8] Some 20,000 people attended and heard Kuhn criticize President Roosevelt by repeatedly referring to him as "Frank D. Rosenfeld", calling his New Deal the "Jew Deal" and denouncing what he believed to be Bolshevik-Jewish American leadership. Kuhn also stated: "The Bund is fighting shoulder to shoulder with patriotic Americans to protect America from a race that is not the American race, that is not even a white race ...The Jews are enemies of the United States." Most shocking to American sensibilities[weasel words] was the outbreak of violence between protesters and Bund storm troopers.[dubious – discuss] Sound familiar?
