Will fear be the basis for your choices in the November election?
It should come as no surprise that Donald Trump is using fear as his motivating tactic to bring his supporters to the polls on November 6. As he descended his elevator at Trump Tower he warned us that the bad people of Latin America were coming to the United States.
The jacket cover of Bob Woodward’s book, Fear, has this quote from Mr. Trump, “Real power is-I don’t even want to use the word-fear.” The words of Candidate Donald Trump on March 31, 2016 in an interview while running for president of the United States.
Trump is now telling all who will listen that mobs of illegal immigrants are coming to rape your wives and daughters, create gang violence, and kill you.
At a Texas rally supporting Ted Cruz Trump said, “The Democrats have launched an assault on the sovereignty of our country, the security of our nation and the safety of every American,” He has even said that the Democrats organized the migrant caravan from Central America. . He has claimed without offering any evidence that the caravan includes criminals and “unknown Middle Easterners.”
Trump argues that Democrats want to create a socialist system of “gridlock, poverty and chaos” like Venezuela.
Trump has also warned of voter fraud, which doesn’t exist at significant levels, and claims the Democratic Party has been taken over by proponents of “unhinged” mob rule — even though his rallies are the ones where supporters yell for his political opponents to be locked up, and he praised a lawmaker for assaulting a reporter.
He said most Democrats opposed his opioid initiative, even though it passed 98-1 in the Senate and 393-8 in the House.
On Sunday Trump promised a new tax cut after the midterm election. Bloomberg reports, “Even if policy makers hastily pulled something together at the White House’s insistence, lawmakers are out until after the election. After that, in the lame-duck session, it would be tough to take up a bill if Democrats are poised to take over the House in January. The Senate has already shown reluctance to consider the House legislation, which would make permanent individual income tax cuts set to expire at the end of 2025.”
On Monday, in an exchange with reporters, he could not support his earlier claim that there were riots in California over so-called sanctuary cities.
As most people are affected by fear many Americans will vote to support the fear monger.
