For those of you who have been focusing your anger and discontent at Trump the past few years, it is clear that the dangers to our Democracy and the core American values we cherish, he poses, don’t end with him. Democrats need to focus on a more systemic solution to the Trump phenomenon or we are all doomed!
This book helps explain the direction our governments, from local school boards to the President of the United States, are headed. And it’s a scary place that is getting harder and harder to put the brakes on!
Trump is not the disease, he is just the most visible symptom. Republican trolls who constantly post that Obama started the racism are right in a manner of speaking. The election of a black man to the presidency scared the large minority of racists in this country into organizing and getting their hateful messages out to recruit more fearful white supremists into their ranks. And Trump’s announcement of his presidential run which trashed immigrants touched right to the heart of their hatred and let them know they could elect one of their own to the lead the country, even though no one actually thought he could win. But dirty deals, huge money, voter suppression, division in the Democratic Party put this Orange Buffoon into office. If the Democrats can’t coalesce behind one candidate and one primary message, Trump just might get four more years to totally bankrupt the country, not only financially, but morally.
Two thumbs up.
Democrats focus always concerns me. AOC is thoughtful and speaks intelligently about issues. She is always prepared and not intimidated.
Not intimidated is right!
