The scary part isn't that Trump is malicious, vindictive, dishonest, and self-serving. What's scary is the fact that his followers shape-shift their entire moral code in order to support the things he says and does.

You're able to act and behave in ways that don't necessarily benefit you directly, but which help others. And others do the same for you.
I want a society in which people's basic needs are being met. I want a government that prioritizes making sure that people's basic needs are met.

They mean surviving just one more day, and maybe living long enough to see the next generation.
But when your basic needs are being met, you're able to look beyond yourself. You're able to consider the needs of others.

Empathy, compassion and kindness. These aren't weaknesses. These are hallmarks of an advanced society.

Brown people being covertly snatched off the street, quickly transfered to detention centers in TX and LA, being held for an indeterminate amount of time without being charged with a crime and without access to the courts or legal representation. FAR too many Americans are perfectly okay with this.

Trump has condemned all violence except violence that reflects his grievances, his vengefulness, and his hate. Anyone who speaks out against or attempts to thwart behavior which supports the goals and ambitions of the Trump regime will be arrested, defamed, and subjected to rendition.
