In yesterday's post, I commented on my recent visit to Greenville NC and I noted that Donald Trump was scheduled to appear. I wrote this:
This goddamn fucking racist moron has selected Greenville as the sight for one of his goddamn fucking racist moronic rallies in front of an adoring audience of goddamn fucking racist moronic mouth-breathing idiots. If my impression of ECU (East Carolina University) is any indication, Trump's team is going to need to bus these goddamn fucking racist moronic mouth-breathing idiots from the surrounding countryside.
Well, apparently, however they got there, they got there and proceeded to make a bad thing worse.
Trump went off on one of his rambling fact-free racist screeds against Rep. Ilhan Omar, the Somali refugee who came to America when she was 10 years old, became a citizen and ran for Congress where she handily won her district in Minnesota in 2018. Trump has made several disparaging comments questioning her loyalty to America, accusing her of supporting terrorists and suggested she should return to her own country.
The assembled crowd at the rally began to chant: "Send her back!" "Send her back!" "Send her back!" "Send her back!"
You know, it's bad enough that Donald Trump is a small minded hate mongerer but to see how easily he can pull a mob down with him into the depths of his depraved fear and loathing, it is most disheartening.
