This isn’t unique to him either. I can empathize with the thought, I happen to live in the states, but I disagree with the premise. All Trump did was break the decorum of not saying the quiet part out loud and now that toothpaste doesn’t go back into the tube. This had been bubbling since at least Reagan and his welfare queen dog whistle horsecrap, it simmered with Clinton and the political angling of Newt Gingrich and the rise of Rush Limbaugh, and finally boiled over with the Tea Party when a black guy actually won. This now is the wake behind the boat and the boat screamed past us a while ago.
