How Trump Works

The torrent of political sewage from Donald Trump's White House and his enablers and defenders in the right-wing hate media is designed to keep you distracted. It is a test to wear down your defenses in order to prepare you for the next crime and undermining of your freedoms. This is how democracies die. Authoritarianism 101.
Trump, like other authoritarians and neo fascists also uses "national emergencies" and "crises" to gut the rule of law and democratic norms and procedures. It is now revealed--again--how Trump and his white supremacist ghoul Stephen Miller have actually created an artificial "crisis" at the U.S.-Mexico border as a tool for their extreme and very dangerous political agenda.
Conspiring to deny people their human rights and rights of due process are also be an impeachable offense. Here is a great summary of Trump's manufactured crisis and the racist and nativist lies which accompany it.
Silence is complicity. Passivity is encouragement to evil. 
Dear America: what are you going to do about these crimes being committed in your name and paid for with your tax dollars?
