Right now we have a candidate, Donald Trump, who has demonstrated
himself to be a Demagogue by the rhetoric he uses about Immigration. When you
choose one group of people or two groups of people to profile, it doesn’t matter,
it is still called Prejudice. You have to go back in history and compare what
he is proposing. His immigration policies are egregious. His entire campaign
has been bringing those people together who support prejudices rather than
using a rational argument. The scary thing is, there are so many people who
would rather blame somebody else, usually minority groups, for their tales of
woe
History can repeat itself if left in the hands of such
people and their leaders.
The cartoon above represents Trump, the candidate, rolling
in the “Trojan Horse”{1}. . Beware of
his bag of tricks. Whatever he says is based on where he is and who he is
speaking to, and usually filled with lies. I was amazed when I looked up his
statements in Politico for True or False and remarkably almost all he says are
at least one-half or all false. The only statement he said that was fully true was
that Hillary Clinton hasn’t had a news conference in months. Wow! If he were to
win, we don’t know what would creep out of that “Horse.”
{1} Metaphorically a “Trojan Horse” has come to mean any
trick or stratagem that causes a target to invite a foe into a securely
protected bastion or place. A malicious computer program which tricks users
into willingly running it is also called a “Trojan Horse”. (Wikipedia)
