So the media and the Republicans are just now learning about Trump's racism and antisemitism?

Oh please what a dose of codswallop. His bigotry has always been there to see. On Oct. 12, 2018 TFG went to
Lebanon, OH for a rally and during that rally he stood up in front of God, all of those slack jawed MAGA people,
and the TV cameras and praised good old Gen. Robert E Lee for his skills and blamed rich internationalists aka
"the Jews" for paying for a caravan of migrants coming up through Mexico to the Texas border.

Trump's praise of Bobby Lee in Lebanon, OH was no accident because that area of OH is home to the Klan in OH
and all kinds of right wing racist thoughts and people. You used to be able to see a barn off of I-71 north bound
side that had a barn with the confederate flag on its roof and that was 100% KKK. Also many of the people
arrested for violence at the "Unite the Right" white power/neo nazi rally in Charlottesville, VA in 2017 were from
or had connections to that area of S.W. OH including the person who ran over and killed that young lady. Also
the idiot who shot @ the FBI office in Cincinnati after the raid on Merde a Logo was from that area too. Trump
and his people were well aware of that and they were playing up to American racism with his speech in Lebanon, OH.

As per TFG's antisemitism during that same speech where he blamed rich internationalists (the Jews) for paying
for "dark people" to come to America and that talk helped to fuel the sick mind of a domestic terrorist to attack on
The Tree of Life Synagogue in Squirrel Hill, PA shortly there after.

These dark forces are what Trump sees as his real base, his playing up to them did not just start start with last
weekend's dinner @ Merde a Logo with those 3 loathsome shits, and Trump has every intention on trying to start
some violence with his racist, antisemitic, and Christo Fascist followers when he is hopefully brought to justice for
his countless crimes against the American people and the world.

sorry to

Trump in Lebanon, OH Oct. 12, 2018

Goldwater was up front about his selling of racism and he won many of the states of the old C.S.A..

Nixon had his "southern strategy."

Reagan started his campaign in Neshoba County, Mississippi (Mississippi Burning) talking about state's rights

HW had his Willie Horton

w "won" in 2000 and 2004 stopping blacks from voting or having their votes counted.

and TFG well you know.
