They may not use the same racist words Trump constantly spews from his filthy mouth, but Republican politicians have acted in a racist manner for decades. It is well-known that the old, white men who dominate the GOP harbor hatred and resentment for minorities.

They have distanced themselves from Trump’s most recent and blatant racial attacks on four freshman members of the House who have come to be known as “the squad,” but none have condemned him for his words. They are making weak attempts to survive the 2020 election. We must not allow this to happen; they are the enemy.

“Trump tweeted on July 14 that Democratic representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, and Ilhan Omar should ‘go back’ to their ‘broken and crime-infested countries,’ though three out of four of them were born in the US.” Ms. Omar came to America from Somalia when she was just 10 years old.

Trump failed in his attempt to sway the criticism from around the world, claiming that he didn’t have a “racist bone” in his body. Ocasio-Cortez hit back in a tweet that said, “You’re right, Mr. President — you don’t have a racist bone in your body. You have a racist mind in your head, and a racist heart in your chest.”

The truth is that all of us who pay close attention to Washington have known for a long time that he is the bonified leader of the white nationalist movement in America.

Let’s take an honest look at the 2020 election. Currently, demographics who are expected to support Democratic and Independent candidates include women, Hispanics, African Americans, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, Buddhists, the LGBTQ community, and most importantly, the largest demographic; millennials.

Republicans have the support of old, white, rich, men and women who claim to be Christians.

Trump is the most hated illegitimate president in history; not only in America but around the world. He has earned it. No one wants to listen to his illiterate speech, watch his old man antics; in fact, according to White House insiders no one wants to be in a room alone with him.

Trump should be impeached. If that does not happen the American people must go to the polls in record numbers on November 3, 2020. Republicans are the enemy and we can defeat them with our ballots.
