Here we go again.
Trump once again shows his vile inner self — laughing along with his rally’s racists, encouraging violence of the worse kind …
Trump jokes after rally attendee's suggestion to 'shoot' migrants at the border
Panama City Beach, Florida (CNN)
[...]
And don't forget, we don't let them and we can't let them use weapons. We can't. Other countries do. We can't. I would never do that. But how do you stop these people?" the President said.
Someone in the audience interrupted Trump, shouting: "Shoot them!"
Trump chuckled at the shouted remark before shaking his head, as the crowd began to laugh.
"That's only in the Panhandle you can get away with that statement," the President then said with a smile, with the crowd erupting into laughter. "Only in the Panhandle!"
There was no correction or stern rebuke in his follow-up comments. Only an encouraging joke.
Only in Trump’s “nod and wink” American is such violence and racism, tacitly approved with a chuckle and a knowing comment.
I am so sick of this crap. Trump is a ‘clear and present danger’, getting even more dangerous, with every new sickening low he gets away with. With next to no real consequences.
Watch him “Aw-shucks” his way out of this latest call to violence — like so many outrages before this one.

Someone, like the Congress, like the Media, like the People, need to hold this anti-American Bully to account.
THIS is NOT what a Leader of the Free World acts like.
We the American People deserve so much better than Trump, the racist-in-chief.
