Vindicated as such, nearly every time Trump opens his demagogic f*cking mouth.

Like George Wallace in the 1960s, Trump capitalizes on the need of many low-information, angry white voters to blame all of their troubles on somebody else. Jobs going overseas, wages stagnating, retirement funds disappearing – surely, this must be the fault of Mexican immigrants or Muslims.
Trump is loud, talks like a 4th grader, acts as though he is God’s gift to Earth, and adds plenty of fuel to the already-raging fire of minority resentment that exists in some right-wing circles in this country.

Quote:
What is important is that no one who acts the way Trump acts and says what he says should be President of the United States.
It’s not a job for a 6-year-old child in the body of a 69-year-old reality TV star.
As President Obama appropriately said at a press conference this week, “This is not entertainment. This is not a reality show. This is a contest for the presidency of the United States.”
That’s what voters should remember when they head to their polling places this fall and consider throwing their support behind a campaign that has done nothing but appeal to the worst of human instincts.
America is a wonderful place to where people all over the world flock. We are an increasingly diverse country, with each generation progressing toward a more tolerant and inclusive society.
Donald Trump’s candidacy is a response to that progress; a type of reaction that each generation must face down. It’s the bloodied and angry knife-wielding villain coming out of the shadows after we think we’ve already disposed of him.
Vindicated as such, nearly every time Trump opens his demagogic f*cking mouth.
