Vox - Donald Trump's convention speech was an overwhelming victory for fear

[TomCADem]

I guess he is taking cues from the Philippine Presidential election and dumping down his message even more. Also, protect Gays from Muslims, Blacks from Mexican Immigrants, Police from Blacks, Workers from China, etc.?

Is his plan to wrap everyone bubble wrap and keep us all from killing each other?

Donald Trump ended the fourth and final night of the 2016 Republican National Convention with one of the darkest, most foreboding, and aggressively fearmongering speeches in modern political memory. It was unapologetically nationalistic, revived the rhetoric of race-baiting organizations from the America First Committee to the 1968 Nixon campaign, and moderated none of Trump’s most contentious policies.

Indeed, it promised this whole election will be a referendum on Trump’s theory of what’s wrong with America, in which immigrants, terrorists, and gang members are violently rampaging throughout the nation and must be destroyed by a strong, forceful leader.

It’s hard to know where to start with the speech, but this paragraph is what I keep coming back to:

I have a message for all of you: The crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon come to an end. Beginning on January 20, 2017, safety will be restored.
