Charlottesville was no isolated incident. When Trump announced he was running for president, he called Mexicans rapists. Days before the midterm, he formatted fears of a caravan heading to United States creating hysteria when he said, 'Look, look, some marching up. This is an invasion, an invasion.' He asserted that immigrants would quote, 'carve you up with a knife'. More recently, he called a major American center city, a disgusting rat infected road mess. 'No human being', he said would choose to live as though the vibrant diverse community around Baltimore somehow was less than human. At a rally in Florida, when he asked the crowd, 'How do we stop these people?' Meaning immigrants, someone yelled back, 'Shoot them!' And he smiled. In North Carolina, he basked in the chants of 'send her back' echoing across the stadium.
