The Trump mindset is will never be shut down it's returned again throughout history leading to death and bloodshed whenever it takes hold, we can't stop people think the way they do because hatred and xenophobia are part of human nature, but that is not the nature of our American society. One we build as a people with civility. It is not the "Trump mindset" we strive to teach our children.

Being a "fuckwit", a racist, a Trump supporter these are all just different faces of the same beast, they all revel in the humiliation and dehumanization of those who they see as weak.

I am liberal and economically, fortunate man, I stand nothing to lose of my own by the polices of Trump, if every immigrate is deported and every Muslim is killed, I have no reason to fight against these things, except my belief that to cause the suffering of the innocent is evil.

While one can never truly speak to a man's character, his behavior is evil and will, in time, be punished, if not by us then by a greater power. That power whether it economic, foreign, in the legacy we leave as Americans, or possibly even an angry god, it will judge him and us as well for our complacency.
