“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
Immigrants built America. No one works harder to make a country better than the people who know how much worse it can be.
Why do all of his speeches sound like they were pulled straight from the nazis?
"Donald Trump appears to take aspects of his German background seriously. John Walter works for the Trump Organization, and when he visits Donald in his office, Ivana told a friend, he clicks his heels and says, “Heil Hitler,” possibly as a family joke.
Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler’s collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed. Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade. Hitler’s speeches, from his earliest days up through the Phony War of 1939, reveal his extraordinary ability as a master propagandist. "
Oh yeah, that’s why. Thanks vanity fair.
Again, he’s not subtle.
He’s literally Dwight from that episode where Jim teaches Dwight how to deliver a speech.
He isn’t smart enough to know the historical paradigm of dictator’s speeches himself.
I wanna know who his Jim is.
You know who’s not ‘pouring into America’? People with options.
Unless you’re fleeing the third world, I can’t imagine why America would even be on your radar. He’s obsessing over the wrong problem.
That’s such a great way to put it.
I like most of you Americans, but I don’t wanna share the longest undefended border anymore if that asshole is elected again.
Just tell everyone that Alberta is out of oil. No one is going to invade for the maple syrup, despite it being the nectar of the gods.
It will be for the water though.
That may sound better if it got turned around to "Rally immigrants tell Trump is ‘poisoning the blood of our country’
“ Trump is the son, and grandson, of immigrants: German on his father’s side, and Scottish on his mother’s. None of his grandparents, and only one of his parents, was born in the United States or spoke English as their mother tongue. “
You know, he may have a point.
Isn’t he married to an immigrant?
Slaves and mail-order brides are OK.
Baron is an anchor baby.
Trump is poisoning the brains of our country.
I agree with Trump. Ever since the first European settlers came to the North America, the area has been in heavy decline. From polluting rivers to the point where they could be lit on fire, to the last president who was a fascist.
When whatever conflagration that MAGA causes is over, those who survive will have a duty to record what Trump and his supporters were. No Milgrahm experiments to explain why people reflexively obey authority. No excuses about how Trump was so charismatic and could sway and persuade.
Nobody is being tricked or persuaded. Trump is paradoxically the most transparent politician in American history. He’s no great persuader. Listening to him speak is like watching a drunk man cross an icy street. The truth is LOTS of Americans fucking love fascism! They want people to be harmed and killed. They’ll suffer hardships, and take losses to make it happen. They raise Trump on their shoulders because he tells them what they want to hear. And they’ll happily hoist someone else up should Trump stumble.
Remember the Dominion lawsuit against Fox reviled that the network presenters were cowed and intimated by the viewership. All these years people like Jon Stewart told us that Fox news radicalized Memaw and Poppop. Maybe all along it was the deplorables that radicalized Fox.
At some point, people will be standing in the rubble of American cities asking “how could this happen”? Tell them Americans wanted it; Americans voted for it; and Americans gleefully held hands and jumped into the abyss.
People want to believe that deep down, most people are good. I believe this to be a lie people tell themselves. No, most people are awful and would fuck over anyone they don’t know if they do much as think it will make them better off.
I think you’ve got it twisted. People do awful stuff because they think it’s good. The Nazis thought Jewish extermination was helping. Theirs a Documentary on Netflix about German soldiers tasked with shooting Jews. For most of them it was a horrible ordeal. One of the biggest motivators for continuing was the thought that shirking one’s “duty” meant your comrade was going to have to do it for you. (one of the rationale for the concentration camps was to spare the death squads from PTSD)
I mentioned the Milgram experiment. If you take psy101 they’re going to tell you that that experiment proved that humans will harm each other for the sake of an authority figure. But that’s not true. Repetitions of that experiment that replaced the lab-coat guy with one wearing a military or police uniform and you went from the vast majority willing to harm people to the vast majority refusing. People weren’t obeying authority, they were volunteers who wanted to help science. They thought continuing a harmful experiment was their duty.
You’ve probably heard that quote from Fred Rogers about how when something tragic happens, “look for the helpers”. Well, it turns out that many of the people who cause tragedy think they’re helping.
“Americans”
Trump didn’t win the popular vote before and he won’t win it this time either. When he wins he’ll win with a minority of voters, with likely less than 50% of Americans even casting a ballot at all. It’s a very specific subset of Americans that are throwing the rest of us off a cliff.
Please Donald Trump, save us 🙏
And for a decent percentage, mRNA gene therapies known now by the false monicker of “vaccines.” They changed the definition, that’s why. And, I am stuck in the old definition.
And sugar, corn syrups, etc.
