I am quite certain that Trump's supporters (which is the set of people I'm talking about and is clearly a set that only partially overlaps "Republicans") will do exactly that because they have been saying so, very loudly, very often, very unmistakably, for a long time. And you know what? I take them at their word. I believe them. Have you not been listening? ---rsk p.s. They're doing it again RIGHT NOW, as you're reading this. They're thrashing Starbucks because the CEO announced that they would hire 10,000 refugees over the next 5 years. Now we could all nitpick that (and we probably will) but at least it's an attempt to do something humane and decent and compassionate. Consider carefully what kind of a person has a problem with that and then tell me how I could possibly demonize them any more than they already have. -- Liberationtech is public & archives are searchable on Google.
