August 21, 2019 "Information Clearing House" - He attacked four progressive congresswomen of color from the Democratic Party whom he directed his ugly, vicious, and vile vitriol at: Alexandria Ocassio-Cortez (D-NY), Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Rashida Talaib (D-MI), and Ayanna Pressley (D-MAS).
“On Sunday evening, he initiated an attack on Twitter, denouncing them as “radical Left Congresswomen” who “speak so badly of our Country” and “hate Israel with a true and unbridled passion.”Trump cited the comments of one of his cronies Republican Senator Lindsey Graham that”AOC[Ocasio-Cortez} and this crowd and this crowd are a bunch of Communists” who are “Anti-Semitic” and “Anti-American”
The President continued his own comment along this theme Monday afternoon: “We will never be a Socialist or Communist Country,” he tweeted. “IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY HERE, YOU CAN LEAVE!”1
Historically Violence and Institutional Racism in American has been part and parcel of American history, culture, and psychic since the first European landed on the shores of the Atlantic. But, what is new is Trump’s tirade and race-baiting is that Race and Racism has become legitimized, normalized, a factor to be used as a much deeper political, racial, social and demographic divide for America’s heart and soul for 2020 presidential electioneering.
Trump’s History of Racism:
Donald Trump, a New York real estate swindler & ruthless businessman he was well known for his vile, filthy, vulgar racism towards his apartment housing tenets in NY. His racism and intolerance have always been in evidence; only slowly did he begin to understand how to use them to his advantage. He has a long history of racism and hatred towards visible minorities i.e. African, Hispanic, Chinese & Muslim Americans and women since his early years in the 1970’s.
Trumps father was a well-known Klansman in New York and New Jersey in his hey days. Most of Trump’s business Associates espoused racist, xenophobic, misogynic and exploitative ideology and business practices all their adult and business lives.
Trump prospered both personally and financially in racial zed, and politicized American societies and business environment which he personally cherishes and glows. His racism and intolerance have always been in evidence; only slowly did he begin to understand how to use them to his advantage.
But Trump’s racist tweet have a deeper and more strategic agenda then meets the eye, and that it is his Re-election Campaign for 2020 and to energize his electoral base who are the crux of this matter: White Nationalist and supremacy Agenda
Who are majority white, male, rural or/ and trailer- park residents, unemployed from the rust-belt, bible-belt, and southern corn-belt.
A central theme of white nationalist agenda is to see phrases like “Go back to your country” or “go back to where you came from” and their variations have been used to attack racial, ethnic, and religious minorities around the world for generations. But it is also an important sentiment for white nationalists, who see immigration and multiculturalism as threats to white-majority power and cultural dominance, or as an attempt at “white genocide.” In their view, nonwhite immigrants represent a subhuman invasion to be repelled — people who should be pushed and kept out of the country”.2
Although President represent the 1% extremely rich corporate class Elites of America and doesn’t care a hoot on those average blue- color working class and white ,male , hard-core Republican base, he is still pandering and willing to use their ‘White Nationalistic Supremacy Agenda” for political and personal gain to be re-elected in 2020.
“Today’s Republican Party is the largest, most powerful and most dangerous white racist organization in the United States — if not the world. Donald Trump, the president of the United States, is its leader. These are plain if not understated facts. No embellishment is needed. The examples are many. Over the last few days Donald Trump has repeatedly dug into his bucket of racist political scatology, saying on Twitter and elsewhere that four nonwhite members of Congress (“Progressive’ Democrat Congresswomen,” as he mockingly put it) should leave America and go back to their own “crime infested” and “totally broken” countries.
