"USA! USA!" -- Trump's Corpus Christi rally

The images of Trump's rally in Corpus Christi just won't go away. It's haunting my mind like those horrible historic images we've seen of Nuremberg rallies.

He thought it was about him. People cheered. They chanted "USA! USA!"

He was wearing a USA hat which was selling online for $40.

He waved around a Texas flag looking like a clumsy matador.

He never mentioned the victims of the disaster.

He thought it was about him.

How did America get here? How much longer do we have to stay here?

So I'm going to use an arabic dialect :


!!!!نعل جد أ رّس نتع ببك الكلب !!! تف علك !!!!! آلله يعتك كي


n3al jad erassa nta3 babak el kelb!!!! Tfou a3lik !!! Allah ya3tik kia!!!

It is not easy to translate but it means more or less : be damned dog son, I spit on you, go die in hell where you belongs. It is harsher in arabic.

shouting "USA, USA" who weren't shills. Just "normal" people, shouting, cheering, and worshiping "great leader." They are the really scary ones.

Narcissist, idiots who voted and idiots who stayed away from the polls.

Just ask a hippie.
