15. Hard to imagine the photo-op team didn't take the billboard into account...

"Bring your most /
Excellent Race."

His base is composed of many racists. Hell, mostly racists.

And, just for giggles, Who built this nation? SLAVES, for the most part, especially in the south, indentured, abused people forced to work for jack shit with nothing to hope for, and once they outlived their usefulness, fuck 'em, let 'em die.

Then, after the people woke up, UNIONS built even more. Robber barons are still trying to "correct" that "problem" so they can get richer and richer.

Fuck them.
