When Trump invited Iran to “take out” L.A. and San Diego at a rally in Grand Island, Nebraska, the audience clapped and cheered. I have been to Nebraska numerous times. I don’t think that represents the people of Nebraska. I think that represents the kind of people Trump attracts to his rallies. Cruel people. Ugly people.
And I think we have been coarsened in the last 10 years by Trump. From his comments on women, his friendship with Epstein, his lying about being at the 9/11 site and his celebrating that now his buildings were the tallest in New York...unfortunately people often take their cues from their leaders.
I would bet none of those people in that audience who are old enough to remember 9/11 cheered when that happened. Just 12 years later I think at a Trump rally they might.
