“Make America Great Again”...
Trump's repeated proclamations about rebuilding the United States likewise are pure demagogy and lies. Just another vehicle to make the fat cats of America even fatter.
«Scam alert: Trump's $1tn 'infrastructure plan' is a giveaway to the rich» (TheGuardian, June 10, 2017).
“To be sure, America is in dire need of vast investments in infrastructure. The country suffers from overflowing sewage drains, crumbling bridges, rusting railroad tracks, outworn roads, and public transportation systems rivaling those of third-world nations. The American Society of Civil Engineers, giving America’s overall infrastructure a grade of D-plus, says we would need to spend $3.6tn by 2020 to bring it up to par.
“We’re spending hours in traffic jams, disrupted flights, and slow-moving trains. And we’re sacrificing billions in lost productivity, avoidable public health problems, and increased carbon emissions. But what Donald Trump is proposing won’t help. It’s nothing but a huge tax giveaway to the rich. It boils down to a giant public subsidy to developers and investors, who would receive generous tax credits in return for taking on the job.
«Which means the rest of us would have to pay higher taxes or get fewer services in order to make up for the taxes the developers and investors would no longer pay. For every dollar developers put into a project, they’d actually pay only 18 cents – after tax credits – and taxpayers would contribute the other 82 cents through their tax dollars.
«No one should be surprised at this scheme. It’s what Trump does best; he was a swindler-developer who made billions off of generous tax credits and other subsidies.
«The public would also pay a second time. The developers would own the roads and bridges and other pieces of infrastructure they finance. They’d then charge members of the public tolls and fees to use them. In place of public roads and bridges, we’d very expensive have private roads and bridges.»
Hatred...
The Trump presidency is the most openly racist and ultra-chauvinist regime in modern American history.
To be sure, there is exceptionally fertile ground in America to generate widespread hatred of the “others”. Donald Trump's presidential campaign promoted Islamophobia and racism. And his administration activates these vicious practices.
"'From start to finish, the 2016 presidential election vividly revealed that Islamaphobia is alive, and potent and politically resonant as ever," writes University of Detroit Professor Khaled Baydoun. 'Scapegoating Islam and vilifying Muslims was far more than merely campaign messaging; for Donald Trump it was a winning strategy.'" (BBC News, Feb. 7, 2017)
Trump's travel ban against 6 majority Muslim countries is based on vile hatred. As Adolph Hitler had a few “honorary Jews”, Trump caters to the vicious, extremely repressive Saudi Arabian regime and its satraps to demonstrate “tolerance” to people of the Muslim faith.
Trump blames (almost) all Muslims for terrorism, when in fact it was the US imperialism – in concert with the brutal Saudi dictatorship and others of the same ilk – which gave life to, financed and promoted Al Qaeda and analagous extremist and terrorist organizations. Muslims are the main victims of these vicious criminals.
“Build the wall!!”...
Trump's other main target are impoverished Mexican immigrants-workers who labor in the United States for miserably low wages. Trump proposes to keep Mexicans out of the USA “promised land” by constructing a massive wall along the that country's border with the US. The totally unscrupulous mafia-president blatantly and repeatedly lies by averring that Mexico will pay for it!
Claiming that these oppressed people are the source of crime in the US, the president openly calls for violence against them. «Trump’s fearmongering speech» (Vox, July 28, 2017).
“President Trump returned to one of his favorite themes: Immigrants are bringing drugs, crime, and violence to the US and must be stopped.
«Trump called (Mexican) gang members “animals”. He suggested cops and immigration enforcement agents should act more violently toward the people they arrest. Trump blamed gang violence on children who came to the US seeking asylum.»
«Kill the Blacks”...
It is only to be expected that ugly racist Trump would wholeheartedly endorse murderous police as they mow down Afro-Americans throughout the US.
"Chokehold: policing black men and women in America. US justice is built to humiliate and oppress black men” (The Guardian, Aug. 11, 2017).
“There has never been peace between black people and the police. And nothing since slavery – not Jim Crow segregation, not lynching, not restrictive covenants in housing, not being shut out of New Deal programs like social security and the GI bill, not massive white resistance to school desegregation, not the ceaseless efforts to prevent blacks from voting – nothing has sparked the outrage among African Americans as when they have been under violent attack by the police.”
The me-too-Yankees in Russia are deliberately oblivious to Trump's vicious racism and his support of avowed American fascists. «The Nazis in Charlottesville were enabled by Trump» (British GQ, Aug. 13, 2017).
«Ever since Trump’s victory, the worst elements in American society have been emboldened. “Hail Trump, hail our people, hail victory!” was how white nationalist and alt-right founder Richard Spencer proclaimed Trump’s victory before lifting his arm (in the Hitler “Sieg Heil” salute) in front of an audience that lifted theirs in response. The resurgence of public racism is a consequence of Trump’s victory.”
On the road to fascism: Trump-sanctioned massive police thievery...
Trump and his ultra-reactionary team are working overtime to create an overt police-state dictatorship in the US. At present, there is too much domestic opposition to The Donald for him to accomplish this goal. So far.
«Policing For Profit: Thinly Veiled Plot To Rob Us Blind» (The Rutherford Institute, July 24, 2017)
«Under the guise of “fighting crime,” Trump's Attorney General Jeff Sessions gave police the green light to rob, pilfer, steal, thieve, swipe, purloin, filch and liberate American taxpayers of even more of their hard-earned valuables (especially if it happens to be significant amounts of cash) using any means, fair or foul.
“The foul method favored by Sessions & Co. is civil asset forfeiture, which allows police and prosecutors to “seize your car or other property, sell it and use the proceeds to fund agency budgets—all without so much as charging you with a crime.”
«Despite the fact that 80 percent of these asset forfeiture cases result in no charge against the property owner, challenging these “takings” in court can cost the owner more than the value of the confiscated property itself. As a result, most property owners either give up the fight or chalk the confiscation up to government corruption, leaving the police and other government officials to reap the benefits.
“These asset forfeiture scams have become so profitable for the government that in 2014, law enforcement took more from people than burglars did. In 2015, the federal government seized nearly $2.6 billion worth of airplanes, houses, cash, jewelry, cars and other items under the guise of civil asset forfeiture.
«Americans no longer have to be guilty to be stripped of their property, rights and liberties. All you have to be is in possession of something the government wants. If the government can arbitrarily freeze, seize or lay claim to your property (money, land or possessions) under government asset forfeiture schemes, you have no true rights.»
