I want to thank Trump

[djsunyc]

trump brought to light the racist/sexist/xenophobic people that still exist. these people would still be hidden under the normal stealth racist republican rhetoric...but thanks to trump, it's completely out in the open.

for this we should say thanks.

our country can see this election and see the state of the country and grow from it. i think trump was step one in really changing the bigoted nature that's still very prevalent today.

even if hillary is the "status quo", the ugliness has been brought to light. only trump could've done that.

1. media still don't want to deal with this reality, among many others, like the emails, the serial

trump sexual assaults

the clearly bogus claims of the fab four from freeperville, so bogus that even a desperate Ken Starr refused to act on ANY of them.

he almost indicted Willey for lying as much as trump

credit to wolf for showing a clip of him with trump in 98 or 99, in which trump, almost fulsomely, praised Hillary over and over. he clearly didn't look demented back then, as he does now. the senility is creeping faster every day

2. Good point!

It has not surprised me that he has revealed the dark underbelly of Republicans....but it has revealed to me that some of them seem genuinely surprised by the nature of their party.
Have you noticed that?

3. I hope you're right

yet it took 250+ years to finally expose openly for the whole wide world to see, with the help of a depraved maniac like the republican nominee and his Party, the putrified abcess right beneath the surface of a seemingly heallthy culture/society/democracy. I don't think I will nor my children or grandchildren will ever see any noticable difference after HRC wins in November. In fact I will and so will they see as they and I have for the last 7+ years, instread of the virulent widespred racism that is part of that pus filled abcess infecting the body and fabric of american society, they will now see how many sexists are are part of that systemic infection.

I will never forget these people were VOTED into leadership positions by a majority of their voting constituences. They have been in power calling themselves leaders at the voters behest for generations. Now we have this lying, cowardly, crooked clown an actual nominee. based on voters choice.... The nominee of the RW and leaders such as Ryan et al. are the disease that finally erupted from out of that pus filled abcess that has been building in infection for generations They will be in the open now, killing, raping and causing general confusion and mayhem for the foreseeable future to never go underground again unless they make the stupid mistake of thinking that they can overide decency and not face retribution IF they should try some shenanigans of the 2nd amendment variety their leader has called for.

The altright/new nazi party will never go away. They have normalized hate, racism, sexism, mysogyny, anti-LGBQT hate, bigotry of all types against the life blood of america, immigrants. The republican party/tea party has let loose their infected genie and it will NEVER be put back in the bottle again. Only the progressives and liberals of our party can be the antibiotic to kill this infection permanently, I just hope we have the will to do so.
