Trump’s Racially Divisive
Politics Must Be Exposed and Opposed !
The intolerant agitation promoted by Republican Donald Trump and support
of its substance by most Republican candidates is a call to the “silent white
majority” and a demand that 11 million immigrants be deported. This campaign is a dangerous and divisive
racial message. It must be vigorously opposed.
We know these campaigns to be dangerous. It is not only the ranting of a
fringe right.
If you cannot vote, you can still campaign
for candidates and assist opposing campaigns with literature distribution. One of the most effective things you can do
is to work with campaigns and to talk with your friends, neighbors, and
families.
Trump’s popularity among Republican voters has dramatically risen in the
polls. He leads the Republican Party
campaign for president and determines the terms of the debate . Cruz
and Rubio have a similar policy on immigration, Build walls, deport people. This fear mongering political message has
found a very receptive base within our society among xenophobic and angry conservative
sectors.
