Trump is a figurehead, and he if he were taken out of the scene another would rise, probably DeSantis. But whenever a man stands up in front of a bunch of aggrieved white supremacists who think they’ve been cheated out of something they’re entitled to, and tells them “I am your warrior. I am your retribution,“ the intention to engage in violence is not even being hinted at, it’s explicit.

I predict that within 7 years, a #Florida high school #diploma will not be accepted for admission to the majority of colleges across the country. The kids will have to get an in state #education which will be suspect to many employers. Or also need a #GED

It will take decades for the state to come back from this. And any other that follows.

My parents were young CORE workers. Never forget the murder of 3 Civil Rights workers in Mississippi in 1964. The case drew national attention because 2 of the men were White. Due to 200 FBI searching for them, the bodies of other missing Black men were found. Never forget the murders were planned by a sheriff and Baptist minister in the KKK. Those evil men are fathers and grandfathers of men we have to deal with today. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/freedomsummer-murder/
