Watch a Year's Worth of Trump Supporters Spouting Vitriol, Racism, Fascist Rhetoric
New York Times releases unfiltered footage from a year of Trump rallies
Aug 04, 2016
It's no secret that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump fills his speeches with nationalism and xenophobia.
And in a three-minute video published by the New York Times late Wednesday, a collection of clips from the divisive nominee's rallies throughout the past year reveals how Trump's chilling rhetoric is being channeled by his followers.
Watch the footage here:
Over the course of several minutes, Trump supporters--alternately jubilant and enraged--are shown spewing racist, homophobic, and sexist slurs, sucker-punching protesters, and displaying a worshipful attitude toward Trump that reminds viewers why his candidacy has been provoking comparisons to 1930s Germany.
Trump acolytes are captured shouting:
"Build the wall! Build the wall!"
"Send them bastards back!"
"If you don't speak English and you don't contribute, get out of here!"
"Get the fuck out!"
"Fuck Islam! Fuck 'em!"
"You don't talk about America when you're supporting Muslims!"
"Hang the bitch!"
"Sieg Heil!"
"He's the last chance we have to establish law and order."
"I swear, on Tuesday I will go to the polls and vote for Donald Trump!"
An Urgent Message From Our Co-Founder
Dear Common Dreams reader, The U.S. is on a fast track to authoritarianism like nothing I've ever seen. Meanwhile, corporate news outlets are utterly capitulating to Trump, twisting their coverage to avoid drawing his ire while lining up to stuff cash in his pockets. That's why I believe that Common Dreams is doing the best and most consequential reporting that we've ever done. Our small but mighty team is a progressive reporting powerhouse, covering the news every day that the corporate media never will. Our mission has always been simple: To inform. To inspire. And to ignite change for the common good. Now here's the key piece that I want all our readers to understand: None of this would be possible without your financial support. That's not just some fundraising cliche. It's the absolute and literal truth. We don't accept corporate advertising and never will. We don't have a paywall because we don't think people should be blocked from critical news based on their ability to pay. Everything we do is funded by the donations of readers like you. Will you donate now to help power the nonprofit, independent reporting of Common Dreams? Thank you for being a vital member of our community. Together, we can keep independent journalism alive when it’s needed most. - Craig Brown, Co-founder |
