Midnight Meme Of The Day!

by Noah

Sometimes actions do speak louder than words. Sometimes words are enough. Trump has, from time to time, insincerely and superficially spoken and tweeted words favorable to the LGBTQ community, including some recent nice words (best words?) directed toward Gay Pride Month (For any republicans reading this, that's THIS month). But, no sooner did Trump board Air Force One to return to the United States than, in a move to show his true self and his solidarity with his party of bigots, he issued a decree that our embassies can no longer fly the Gay Pride flag on their flag poles. Some words are actions in and of themselves, meant to continue to encourage and embolden his followers. Some words are the words of a conniving coward who wants others to do the dirty work.

We've had Nazis for a long time, but with the dawn of Trump, we've had things like endless white supremacy hand gestures and racist comments and policy pronouncements from White House staff. We've had white supremacists from GOP-TV, like Carlson and Hannity, enjoying a direct line to Trump. Trump, too, employs the same hand gestures that aide and speechwriter Stephen Miller is infamous for. Trump enjoys retweeting white supremacy propaganda from Carlson. Richard Spencer's crew chants "Hail Trump." It goes on and on. The Nazis know they have an ally.

The photo for tonight's meme was taken at a Detroit Gay Pride parade on Saturday. Some of Trump's "very fine people" came out of their Nazi closets to attend and mark the festivities in their own very Republican way. You probably won't see much, if any of the photo, unless FOX "News" names the pictured perps as their "Heroes Of The Month." Note that it isn't just the Gay Pride flag that is the object of desecration for Trump's Nazis. I think we know where Trump really stands on that one as well, in his charred black heart of hearts. He's just a little bit more secretive about it. There will be more flags targeted.
