If you were to see an overweight old man with orange hair standing on a street corner ranting about being the “chosen one,” the “second coming of God to Jews in Israel,” how “you have to take the children away” from migrants seeking asylum at the southern border, adding the non sequitur that the U.S. should “purchase Greenland,” and then shouting that the hurricane is coming to Alabama, what would you do? Stay and listen, quickly walk away, or call 9-1-1?
If you stayed and listened, you would hear him say: “[A]ny vote for a Democrat is a vote for individuals who hate Israel and hate Jewish people.” He would point out that two first-year Democratic members of Congress (both women of color) being critical of Israel proves that all Democrats hate Israel.
If you’re still listening, he would turn to the migrants and their children seeking refuge at the southern border without taking a breath. He would shout, “We want a great country. We want a country with heart. … [Y]ou have to take the children away. Now, we don’t have to prosecute them, but then we’re not prosecuting them for coming in illegally. That’s not good.” (Actual quote, whatever that means.)
