How to stop Trump

Trump won solely because of a classic Big Lie: the immigrants are coming to hurt you and I will stop them. Nothing else mattered in his election. If we get the truth out, Trump can’t win. In fact, immigrants, legal and otherwise, are much less likely to harm others. In fact, they lower the crime rate. We need to fix our flawed immigration system. But the idea that immigrants are coming to hurt us is total bullshit. Hitler said Jews are horrible, elect me. Trump said immigrants are horrible, elect me. Total bullshit.
