Midnight Meme Of The Day!

President Trump's blatant encouragement of white supremacists is working. They are increasingly emboldened, They even have prime time FOX "News" goons like Tucker Carlson pushing their sicko agenda, catapulting the propaganda, which, of course, Trump regularly relays to his Republican followers via twitter.
Knowing what we know about Trump and his lifetime of openly demonstrated bigotry, there can be no reasonable doubt that his biggest disappointment last week was that the New Zealand shooter didn't live here in America. Trump is all about manifesting hate and mayhem. When asked to comment on the Mosque attack which left 50 dead, he mouthed some words about it being horrible and quickly reverted to uttering words and phrases that could have come from the Daily Stormer or any other Nazi website. The way he spoke, the words he emphasized, gave a clear indication that he was more comfortable using the language of white supremacists than saying the event was a horror. The shooter had already received the Trump message loudly and clearly. Like any good Nazi, he already knew he had a compadre in the White House before he pulled the trigger.
Trump's current Chief of Staff Mike Mulvaney facetiously claimed, on FOX, of course, that he doesn't know why people keep calling his boss a white nationalist or white supremacist even though he's been so open about it. I guess it can be zero surprise that Mulvaney is no different than his predecessor Gen. John Kelly, Stephen Miller or any of the rest of the Trump White House Grand Wizards.
Meanwhile, half of Congress sleeps, half of Congress nods its collective head in approval, and the public does next to nothing to push them into action. As I've pointed out before, FDR used to say that it's up to the public to make politicians act the way they want. Apparently, the voters are happy with the status quo, happy to let fascist corporate boards and CEOs lead them by the nose to their doom and the doom of the U.S.A. It can happen here and it is. Goebbels is laughing.

that the us president is a demi-god to the worlds' white supremacists is a point of extrEEEEM pride for 62 million American Nazis.
let THAT sink in.
Yes, the public has been asleep at the wheel. What is needed is a MASSIVE demonstration in D.C. against Trump. Or for dealing with climate change. Or for democracy. Or gun control. Or for women's rights. Pick one, or all of the above.
The young people need to take the reins. The Vietnam War sure got the young people going, the draft being the main issue. We cared then because we cared about our lives. The youth of today need to give a shit about the climate and about democracy.
Wake up, young people!
Not to say that older people can't get a move on either....
Hone, we had the womens' march. nothing. we've had climate marches. nothing.
we get new body counts every week or two like clockwork. nothing.
The kids in FL... well, that lasted about as long as OCCUPY did. and... nothing.
It's going to take a lot more than marching.
Now... if all those millenials joined with Xers and Boomers to start voting for Greens or something "Other" than democraps... maybe we'd have something fairly soon.
They'd all have to get a lot smarter (woke?) very soon for that to happen.
