Sickening WaPo expose - what Trump's doing to our children

I think around here people are likelier to stick up for someone being bullied than to do the bullying, but stories like this make me wonder what kind of darkness is lurking in the hearts of people who behave well. Here, the majority are liberal or at least centrist; if these same people were plunked down in the places where even little children are racist, would any of them start to act like this?

And although Trump is responsible for the words that come out of his own mouth, it breaks my heart to think of the kind of hateful atmosphere these kids are growing up in. Kids aren't naturally racist. They're learning this, actively learning it, at home.

What a literal cesspool this country has become.

Interesting that the Post includes the fact that kids have been harassed for supporting Trump 45 times, vs the 28,000 times it's gone the other way. Cuts any possible "what-about" argument off at the knees.
