Now that Trump appears likely unelectable, we can analyze his impact on the country.
Coming down the escalator in Trump Towers in 2015, Trump announced his run for the presidency with a reference to Mexican Nationals, saying "they're bringing drugs, they're bringing crime. They're rapists and some, I assume, are good people."
That generalization was untrue, but intentionally inflammatory, designed to energize his base; generally poorer, less educated Whites from predominately rural areas.
The country is still divided similarly. In Iowa, where Ana and I recently spent a year, Des Moines and its suburbs voted for Biden, but the surrounding rural counties and farmlands voted overwhelmingly for Trump.
The state of Arkansas, where I lived for 30 years, voted similarly with Little Rock and suburbs for Biden, but all the rural areas for Trump.
Racism was Trump's message loud and clear. It certainly wasn't conservative spending as he ballooned the national debt a whopping $7.8 trillion during his one term.
Trump, a master con man, totally fooled his base by holding up a Bible and hugging the flag. He is neither moral nor a patriot.
A moral man, a Bible believer and reader, does not brag about grabbing pussies and pay porn stars for sex, then pay them to keep quiet.
The evangelicals proved themselves to be hypocrites and phonies openly supporting such a man and they were led by the world's biggest scumbags, TV evangelists.
Trump, more than Hugh Heffner or David Duke, nurtured and energized the ugly underbelly of our country.
That's his legacy.

How anyone who truly loves our system of Govt can follow this Liar is beyond my comprehension. In a way, Trump just opened the pandora's box of haters . For that reason alone, he has done more to allow the young generation a peek at what the future holds if we allow Trump and the GOP to take America into the abyss of hate and intolerance. Now , if Texans can only see the light.
