In the final weeks of the presidential campaign, Trump has leaned into an anti-immigrant message. Earlier this week, he suggested that undocumented immigrants who commit crimes have “bad genes.” While speaking here Saturday, Trump described the border as the top issue and continued to portray undocumented immigrants as criminals, even as federal data shows that the vast majority of people arrested at the southern border do not have criminal convictions.

I know that Republicans prefer that the masses do not read history. Still, you can bet that the current crop of American Fascists read every detail, every fact, every event history provides! The folks who surround TRUMP, those who plan for their own form of Dictatorship, understand the lessons history has taught, and they engorge themselves on all of the heinous, horrific, and horrendous iterations possible.
