In his latest efforts to act to stoke fear amongst the base, the current president of the United States has taken to re-tweeting the missives of his screeching howler monkey lackeys that show incidents of race-associated violence with any and all context eliminated.

How can this type of behaviour not make things worse in his actual country where its actual citizens, members of his base included, actually live?

In fact...

It's hard not to conclude that Mr. Trump is willing to to act in a politically expedient manner that supports the efforts of far-right groups, one of which has already both attempted to act and has acted overtly, that are designed to ultimately foment civil war.
