the fact that a 21st century fuhrer is now potus is overwhelmingly because of racists voting that clown-monkey into office. Lert them try to protect their brethren, they have always done that. During the lynching days, they always found a reason for the lynching outside of racist hate that murders PoC. They try to ease their conscience when the truth barges in, fuck em, they care nothing about all who will suffer under this racist administration. NOTHING!!!!!!!!!!!! Just ignore them. They don't care about PoC and all the poor who will suffer. Yes even here, that is true.
