"So how did the #press cover Trumpâs speech on the subject of violent neck slitting in our kitchens?
Bloombergâs headline stated that #Trump âsharpened his criticism on border securityâ and spoke of Harrisâs âpolitical vulnerabilityâ on the question. Axiosâs headline read, âTrump pounds #immigration message after Harrisâs #border visit.â
The #media collectively simply does not know how to report on Trump out of #fear they will appear âpartisanâ or anti-Trump."

"It wasnât enough for #Trump to earlier claim #immigrants are âpoisoning the bloodâ of our country... Trump dialed up the #fear by painting migrants as violent criminals who will murder you in your home...
"language like this often precedes the mass killing. Otherize, dehumanize, and fearmonger about the target group. This is well documented in #Rwanda in [the] 90s and in the 1930s #Nazi regime.
This is #historical fact, not hyperbole.""

The latest apparent assassination attempt against Trump indicates how much the American political landscape has been shaped by #anger stirred by him & against him.
Within days of Trump #vilifying #immigrants on national TV w/ #lies about #Haitian #immigrants eating pets in #Ohio, people began threatening to blow up #schools, #CityHall & other public bldgs, forcing #evacuations & prompting a wave of #fear.

âŠâMy first thought was: Here we go again. This is a trope weâve seen time & time again that is used to âotherâ people of color [&] new immigrants.â said Anita Mannur
