The title begs the question, which Reich?  Is it the Reich on the right that is always wrong, the Republican Reich, or the Reich on the left that is always right, Robert Reich.  Since Dumping Trump makes sense, it has to be Robert, but the message is for the Republican Reich,

0613trump-dump-toilet8 REASONS WHY REPUBLICANS MUST DUMP TRUMP

The Republican Party still has time to change its mind. Right now it’s supporting for President of the United States a man

1. who divides us by race and ethnicity and religion.

He says undocumented Americans “bring drugs, crime, they’re rapists.” That the Mexican government “sends bad ones over because they don’t want to pay for them.” And who says he’ll round up and deport all 11 million undocumented workers in the United States.

This is a man who equivocated on repudiating an endorsement from David Duke, former head of the Ku Klux Klan. And when asked to repudiate the vicious anti-semitism of some of his followers said “I don’t have a message to the fans.

A man who claimed “thousands and thousands” of Muslims in New Jersey celebrated the Twin Towers collapsing, when there’s no evidence at all to support that statement. And whose response to terrorism is to prevent all Muslims from coming into the United States.

A man who, in response to the worst mass shooting in U.S. history, did not mourn the victims, but instead crowed “Appreciate the congrats for being right on radical Islamic terrorism, I don’t want congrats, I want toughness & vigilance. We must be smart!” and repeated his call for his temporary Muslim ban – even though the shooter was an American citizen. “What has happened in Orlando is just the beginning. Our leadership is weak and ineffective. I called it and asked for the ban. Must be tough,” he said.

A man who says black criminals are responsible for 81 percent of homicides against whites, which turns out to be a racist myth…. [emphasis original]

Shame on them indeed!

At the rate Republican politicians and pundits are goose-stepping behind their new RumpDumpinFuhrer, Robert might as well talking to a wall!

  1. You know, this whole "they send" meme – I am surprised it has not become an international incident.  Anyone with a brain in their head can see that no government "sends" anyone to another country except ambassadors, staff, and occasionally spies.  People from Mexico who come to the United States are not "being sent" by the Mexican government.  They are leaving some undesirable situation and are willing to give up their home to do so.  Like the valedictorian who has been in the news whose mother took her and her sister to get away from an abusive husband.  Is that the kind of person a government would pick as an ambassador?  Or a spy?  And what government would select unaccompanied children under the age of 10 to be ambassadors or spies?  Enrique Nieto should sue Drumpf for defamation for implying that he is a blithering idiot!

  2. Robert Reich is spot on!

    Thanks, Tom.

  3. I agree with JD

  4. Robert Reich does it again with simple graphics and easy to understand language. Just a quick 5 minutes of your time for this important message. In a text format or in a video format with (CC). Highly recommended. Robert Reich is a National Treasure just like Elizabeth Warren. lol.
    .

    • AMEN!

      The little speech-reading skills I have would indicate the CC is spot on …

      AND (more importantly) as are the observations of Reich!

  5. They won't Dump Trump, though, they think he might win the White House back for them, never mind that having him for President would be a disaster for this country.

  6. Drumpf is a xenophobe, racist, misogynist, climate change denier, conspiracy theorist, and bully who is willing to incite violence in others to get his way, to increase income and wealth inequality, proposes breaking US and international law.

    Reich is spot on . . . as usual!  I agree with Jim, Reich is a national treasure along with Elizabeth Warren.

  7. No, despite the 8 excellent reasons to dump Drumpf given here by Robert Reich, and the dozen or more that would have made his article too long, the GOP will not dump him. As was said before, Republicans have no scruples and they rather have a narcissistic megalomaniac, they think is one of their own and who they can control, for president than another Democrat in the White House.

  8. Thanks, hugs and amen to all!
