The Poway Chabad synagogue shooter specifically stated that he was inspired by Hitler, Nazis and specifically named the shooter of the “Tree of Life” synagogue in Pittsburgh.
Under Trump, hate crimes and acts of violence against Jews, Muslims, Sikhs and immigrants are way up.
Trump spews lies, hatred and vile, toxic venom, incites rabid, frothing crowds and then has the nerve to deny the reality that he creates (just more of the 10,000+ documented lies from the mouth of this vile perversion of the presidency.
Not all Trump supporters are Nazis and/or KKKONfederates (waving the two most vile flags, both of which were crushed by REAL Americans in World War II and the Civil War respectively). But virtually all Nazis and KKKONfederates are Trump supporters, and for those that are not Nazis or KKKONfederates, they at least did not find this vile, venomous bile and incitement to violence to be disqualifying.
And all those who aid, abet and support this criminal are complicit.
He has turned up the flames of old prejudices and bigotry. Anyone with any insight could have seen this coming when he first began his campaign for presidency. It was fear based.
I’m not sure why the “shark” looks so unhappy. He revels in the support and attention of “really fine people” from that side. He encourages and glories in the hate.
I remember the Republican party under Eisenhower. He was a great president. He started our interstate highway system, which has made life easier for everyone since. He would be a slightly left wing Democrat by today’s standards. Then, of course, Nixon ruined the party’s reputation, and they have been pretty slimy since then. But, there was an honest, responsible Republican party that actually cared about all of the American people, not just the rich, at one time. Wish they were still around.
Shark bait, and nothing is done…..this village idiot is like glue to evil….getting bigger and stronger ……what will it take to rid of him and his greasy family?
What right wing politico was it that always complained about “EMBOLDENING the terrorists?” These guys are certainly terrorists, and they are clearly emboldened. To bad the right can’t let go of all the supremacists in their Republican big tent. With the large number of militant “ALT-right” types, armed with military weapons thanks to the help of the NRA, where is any actions to deal with this threat? Oh, that’s right – the KKK votes, so we get action against women and children at the border.
The suspect in the Christchurch attack identified himself as a white supremacist. Far-right extremists have killed more people in the U.S. since 9/11 than any other organized terrorist group. Hate crimes and domestic extremism in the U.S. alone have been on the rise — in the last 4 years hate groups have grown by 30% — NPR reports, citing data from the Southern Poverty Law Center. Per FBI data, hate crimes in the U.S. surged by 17% last year alone. What’s more: those crimes are likely under-reported, per CNN.
Sharks actually maintain a balance in our oceans, their followers like remora clean up further, reducing “messes”. Bonespurs just increases the mess, and feeds off the offal left by his followers.
The Followers of Trump are dangerous to our body politic every bit as much—- though not more than their current
bloviating leader pro tem has been. Worse the rise of Fascism and fascist ideas is spreading in certain quarters from
Brazil to Poland. And this as the increasing violent global climate is increasing will actually promote such ideas in order
to hold together polities that might otherwise fracture without titanium clad draconian measures. How convenient for the
Nazis, Fascists and authoritarianism rising around our world. We are in for a very violent, harsh, stultifying dark age of
high tech weapons and surviellance and low blows if we aren’t careful. Where living will be much harder maybe as early as
2030 in various places. We have already seen in the past where massive crop failures in places like Somalia and Syria has touched off violence that kills thousands and weaken countries. We must tread more carefully and understand the wider world of what is going on in many levels both Natural made (responses) to unnatural Human made (causes).
By 2030 the whole new political landscape in the Americas & Europe could exist. And free societies could be so few one could count them on one hand. What didn’t happen in the 1940’s could happen in the 2030’s if it continues. Even in the USA which would alter things in a huge way should that happen. It isn’t a conspiracy, it is a trend we need to stop.
(What failed for the Fascist Plutocrats in 1933-1934 here can happen now. They have so much control all over the world and they seem to like authoritarian states even Communist ones that can benefit them, their bottom line.)

Don’t let the ‘pained’ look on the shark fool you. The only thing that makes him even seem presidential is expressing regret at the hateful attacks.

Trump’s hateful and racists views are who he is. It also keeps his white nationalist followers fired up for 2020.
