Not a flirtation. It's a call since "stand back and stand by". A call to be violent on his behalf. Goes back 9 years Evolve Dammit Jun 2025 #2

early 20th century the level of hatred and violent was off the chart for POCs.

Over 1 million latins were deported to Mexico, and oh yes, tariffs.

Sounds familiar.

And it's been embraced by violent domestic terrorists. Funny how they got pardons too.

I just read an article in The Guardian about Stephen Miller.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/jun/15/trump-immigration-stephen-miller-influence

My conclusion is that Miller's personality structure is very similar to that of Vladimir Putin. Their eyes even have the same vacant look of hate and inhumanity.

Conclusion: SERIOUS DANGER
