Now that he’s officially back on Twitter/X and posting for the first time in over a year, failed convicted felon and former president Donald Trump thought he and his campaign would go full racist with their latest attack on Vice President Kamala Harris, sharing a meme that suggests a Harris presidency would result in the United States becoming a Third World nation overrun with immigrants and black people.
Here’s the meme that the Trump War Room account posted Tuesday morning:
The meme comes a day after Trump was interviewed by Twitter CEO Elon Musk and spewed bigoted right-wing dogma, remarking, “These are rough people. These are criminals that make our criminals look like nice people. And it’s horrible what they’re doing.”
What’s horrible is that the disgraced ex-president is digging deep into his old bag of bigotry in a desperate attempt to thwart the rising poll numbers Harris is experiencing.
According to several polling firms, Harris now leads or is tied with Trump in many key battleground states that will likely decide the election: Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. There is even talk of Harris pulling off a major upset and carrying Florida, which just so happens to be where the Donald now lives. A Democrat hasn’t carried the Sunshine State since 2012, when Barack Obama won reelection to a second term in the White House.
So it should come as no surprise that Trump is pushing the race card, attempting to use fear and ignorance to rile up his shrinking base of support among the U.S. electorate. It’s one of his favorite tactics when he needs to regain the advantage.
But based on the negative reaction the Trump camp got in response to the “third world” meme, it appears most Americans are sick and tired of his hatred and blatant racism.
