RACISM AND FEAR-MONGERING
As we enter the last days of this campaign, it is becoming increasingly clear that Trump and his Republican allies have virtually nothing to say about the enormous crises facing our country. Think about it:
Unprecedented income and wealth inequality. Nothing to say.
60% of our people living paycheck to paycheck. Nothing to say.
The highest rate of child poverty of any major country. Nothing to say.
A broken, dysfunctional and wildly expensive healthcare system. Nothing to say.
A corrupt campaign finance system in which billionaires buy elections. Nothing to say.
The existential threat of climate change. Nothing to say.
An uncontrolled AI run by the wealthiest people on earth. Nothing to say.
So, if you are unable to address the issues that impact tens of millions of American families, what do you do? What kind of campaign do you run?
You do what demagogues over the ages have always done. You resort to fear-mongering, racism and dividing people up. That is exactly what Trump, Vance and Republican candidates are doing.
I did a rally in Michigan last week with Abdul. In the 20 minutes I was watching television in Grand Rapids there were 5 disgusting and racist ads against him. Five ads in 20 minutes! According to the ads, Abdul was unfit to serve in the U.S. Senate because he is a Muslim, a “terrorist,” a “jihadist” and God knows what else.
In Florida, the Republican campaign against Angie Nixon and her supporters is that Angie is a “communist” who hates our country and does not believe in freedom. Lies, lies and more lies.
There are four days left in this campaign — the most important midterm election in modern history. We have to defeat the most dangerous president in American history. We have got to defeat the lies, fear-mongering and racism of the Republican Party.
Let’s do it.
