40. He loves to use the phrase "they will be pouring in"...

Feb 2017

to give the impression to his base (and anyone else who is easily persuaded) that we don't already have strict rules in place for people coming into the U.S. from other nations. He will NEVER explain that the process to get a VISA or whatever documents are required to enter the U.S. is already a lengthy process that can take many months up to two years to complete. But the mental image he creates of people "pouring in"...presumably toting their bomb making equipment in their valise....works to convince some that the extreme vetting he advocates is necessary for our well being and safety.

The propaganda that oozes from tRump's mouth every chance he gets in front of a camera or microphone is so disturbing and should set off alarm bells in every one of us. But to his base it is music to their ears and it keeps them engaged and listening to him. If he can lure a few more to his flock of racist, zenophobic followers, so much the better for him.

I don't know how much longer this vile, disgusting man will be allowed to spew his hateful rhetoric and litany of lies, but the longer this goes on the greater the peril to our nation and its way of governance.
