In an Iowa speech he will give this afternoon, Joe Biden calls out Trump for “fanning the flames of white supremacy.”
“How far is it from Trump’s saying this ‘is an invasion’ to the shooter in El Paso declaring ‘his attack is a response to the Hispanic invasion of Texas?’ Not far at all.”
How far is it from the white supremacists and Neo-Nazis in Charlottesville — Trump’s ‘very fine people,’ chanting ‘You will not replace us’ — to the shooter at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh saying Jews ‘were committing genocide of his people?’ Not far at all.”

I just saw a photograph of Angela Merkel on vacation reading Stephen Greenblatt’s study of Shakespeare’s villains: “The Tyrant” : A dissection of the “infantile psychology and unquenchable narcissistic appetites of demagogues.” . Not to mention names, but veeeery interesting. 🙂
“Trump offers no moral leadership. He has more in common with George Wallace than George Washington.” Joe Biden
