Trump is opening the floodgates of hate

[LuckyTheDog]

By Peter Montgomery

The staying power of Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy has surprised and unsettled people across the political spectrum. Many voters who are angry about the loss of middle-class jobs and frustrated with our broken politics have rallied to Trump’s outsider campaign.

There’s a darker side to Trump’s campaign that should disturb anyone thinking about supporting him: It’s electrifying and energizing the white supremacist movement.

“You can’t help who admires you,” says Richard Cohen, president of the Southern Poverty Law Center. “But when white supremacists start endorsing you for president, you ought to start asking why.”

1. That ship sailed some time ago

Mr. Trump's campaign has been outside the ropes since he announced his candidacy. Mr. Montgomery's article, while well-written and documented, seems a little behind what we've all observed and commented on.

Nonetheless, thanks for posting the link, LuckyThe Dog.

2. If the GOP had any semblance of patriotism whatsoever, they would start working "with"

Obama to shield against what we may possibly be in store for ahead. But I am certainly not going to hold my breath waiting for that.

5. They will find some way to blame Obama for the shitstorm that could come

We need to make sure these types do not write our history

6. Unfortunately...

They don't have any semblance of patriotism whatsoever. So...

3. Trump did not open this gate,

THE GOP did, Trump is just taking advantage of the hate that has grown from the soil that the GOP fertilized.

4. And AA, Hispanic , Muslim etc middle class workers never lost any jobs

These White power trumpers are in such a fucking entitled state of mind I don't care what their economic story is . Not a tear or excuse for these "special frustrated "white supremacist
Many people are in frustrating situations with out resorting to hate and talk of future violence, religious segregation,possibly genocide

the answe is not random hate but history shows us groups on the edge of losing the majority power use hate and violence to soothe themselves . They don't play well with others and want all the toys on the playground even if some others brought some of the toys they don't believe it,all the toys are theirs and because of them.
Wish they would just suck on their thumbs or guns and leave the rest of America alone as we try to go forward in to the future

7. Yeah if that fact doesn't terrify you, you are not paying attention!

While we're busy fighting among ourselves, Trump supporters are busy planning the next holocaust. We cannot allow that to happen!
