This is the point at which “blood and soil” nationalism becomes “puke and shit” nationalism. And it has an excellent chance of working with 40% of the electorate.

He’s really gone all in on the war language, which suggests people should take drastic action against the “invaders.” Playing with fire. I can’t believe he writes this incendiary material for himself. Miller time?!

I consider 5200 US troops sent to the border an invasion that people living there will not appreciate.

‘Assault On Our Country’

The only assault on our country, you mendacious, braying jackass, is your continued presence in the White House. The sooner you are gone, the sooner the assault ends.

Miller merely highlighted certain passages in Mein Kampf. and made convenient cue cards for the dotard…

Anyone that goes along with this nativist racism and anti-Americanism needs to be marked as a traitor for all time. There is only one side here and anyone not on it needs to pay the price personally for their support for evil and treason.

Make sure every filthy Trump supporter you know pays in every way you can make them from now on. The deserve punishment and contempt for their evil.

According to the NYT last Friday the “scaravan” (stole this) was down to 4000 people and still 900 miles from the US border. The count was estimated at 7000 people at the 1000 mile mark. So down 3000 in 100 miles. Newsweek yesterday had them down to 3500 people. Terrifying! /s

If this succeeds, it says something profoundly disturbing about America and Americans. It shows we don’t deserve what our forefathers died for, and have abandoned any pretense to our real heritage.

So I don’t think this is going to work. I think that for every person this motivates to vote, two will be motivated to vote against the Republican candidates in their area.

Maybe I’m just a cockeyed optimist, but the musical South Pacific was 60 years ago now and I don’t think we’ve regressed from that.

“Anyone who goes along with this…racism…needs to be marked…”

That would consist of the 291 current repugnican members of the entire us congress and, YES, they should be marked - forever.

This is desperation, pure and simple. It’s shrill, repetitive, and it’s not going to work. He sounds like a fucking imbecile. Maybe the leprosy will get him.

As a Virginia resident, I can tell you that this will not work. Gillespie tried this last year against Northam and all the cries of MS13 and sanctuary cities led to a resounding 9-point Northam victory.

I realize that Virginia isn’t exactly Texas or Arizona or Alabama, but I believe like last year, people will see through this blatant appeal to the deplorables.

Remember, there are more of us, than there are of them.

“Generally certain symptoms appear, among them a peculiar use of language: one wants to speak forcefully in order to impress one’s opponent, so one employs a special, “bombastic” style full of neologisms which might be described as “power-words.” This symptom is observable not only in the psychiatric clinic but also among certain modern philosophers, and, above all, whenever anything unworthy of belief has to be insisted on in the teeth of inner resistance: the language swells up, overreaches itself, sprouts grotesque words distinguished only by their needless complexity. The word is charged with the task of achieving what cannot be done by honest means.”
― C.G. Jung, Alchemical Studies

People’s minds are exploding with the hate rhetoric - I fear we will have some other horrible things happen in the next week by folks becoming unhinged by this constant drumbeat of fear and racist hate language.

The narcissist has no boundaries, no filters, and no remorse. It is sickening to watch. I will be interested to see what he does after the Dems take back the house - the same way a terrible car wreck is interesting. The main thing I fear is a wholesale attempt to de-ligitimize the election by the Republican echo chamber, and you know it is coming. It is the next step.

Good lord. Just think, if his staff would let him get porn in the WH, he might stay there and STFU.
