US election: Biden event in Texas cancelled as ‘armed’ Trump supporters threaten campaign bus
To the many of us who have been paying attention none of these fascist tactics come as a surprise. President Trump’s words & actions over the summer months were horrifying. He has incited and supported violence several times.
- He shared a video that said “the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat.”[1]
- He tweeted a video of a Trump supporter yelling “White power.”[2]
- He tweeted that “when the looting starts the shooting starts.”[3] A saying that is historically tied to a racist Miami police chief from the 60’s.[4]
- Police in Washington, D.C. brutally dispersed an entirely peaceful crowd exercising their first amendment.
