"The coercive powers of the state would be mobilized to curtail the rights of those who dare to deviate and entrench a tiered system of participation defined by hierarchies of race, gender, religion, wealth, and ancestry.

"Donald Trump pursues a political project for which white nationalism serves as an organizing principle. ...

The Trumpists desire to drastically narrow the boundaries of who gets to belong, they seek to purge all others from the 'homeland.' Those who are left would be living in a society that is not only unequal but has ostracized egalitarian aspirations as heresy."

"They are tied to a much broader rightwing attempt to reconceptualize national identity and drastically narrow the boundaries of who gets to belong.

President Donald Trump told Americans to buy fewer pencils to alleviate the bad situation millions now find themselves in under his economic policies during a speech in Pennsylvania on Tuesday night.

“You can give up certain products. You can give up pencils. That’s under the China policy, you know every child can get 37 pencils—they only need one or two, you know they don’t need that many,” Trump said, adding, “You don’t need 37 dolls for your daughter, two or three is nice, but you don’t need 37 dolls.”

"It comes as no surprise to learn that it will be U.S. strategy to support so-called 'patriotic European parties,' for which we should read the overtly racist Nazi-worshipping Alternative For Germany political party that Vice President Vance praised so effusively in February that he practically drooled down his shirt at the Munich Security Conference."

"Now he has admitted the truth. His unhappiness with NATO is racist. For Trump and adherents to his cause, European nations have become insufficiently white.

"Trump has now formulated a new racism expressed in [the National Security Strategy] document as 'civilizational.' He states outright that Europe and our NATO allies are facing 'civilizational erasure' by allowing immigration from other countries that go unnamed but are clearly not 'European.'
