This is what I was waiting for.
Faced with a black/asian woman, the Republicans just aren't going to be able to help themselves - their hateful bigotry is going to keep rearing its ugly head.
The key moment is going to be when Candidate Lardbucket himself lets some of his own racism and misogyny fall out of his festering gob. That's going to be glorious.
I hear you and want to believe this too, but I am forever surprised at how much pro Trumpers are willing to ignore and just how many of them there are. His base will cheer him on and the rest will make excuses or turn a blind eye.
I hope I'm wrong
He's losing extremists to his VP pick having a immigrant wife and mixed race kids, and he's losing moderate with his VP pick who is an extremist.
He's soon to lose a huge amount of women over bodily autonomy, he's promised to build concentration camps for Latinos, he's literally citing 'operation wetback' as a mission statement. He's gonna really eat shit when he's the old idiot that can't talk right versus the average mental acuity displayed by an opponent who is too young to retire, and has public speaking skills beyond the average 12 year old.
This is blowing up so severely, he's already panicking.
Come again?
Also, why did my keyboard let me swipe "wetback"? Racist-ass keyboard.
An Eisenhower-era deportation program that set up the current dynamic of militarized deportation and border control.
As soon as the US seized control of the north western Mexican states (Mexico has states) they have been wanting to rid the land of non white people, under Eisenhower 'operation wetback' was an offical effort to remove non white citizens to Mexico from the western states that were formerly Mexican, many legal citizens were essentially kidnapped and dropped in southern Mexico where they knew no one, didn't have the culture, didn't speak the language, and didn't have connections, often on boat trips against their will that provided no food or water if they could avoid it, a huge amount of people died on the ships or very soon after being forceably moved off the ships. The economic devistation from population decline in many effected towns and cities took more than a generation to recover.
