The GOP's racists were once pushed to the fringes. In the Trump era, they're in charge, writes @MaxBoot

Let us be honest here, the GOP became the Party of White Supremacy the second the nominated Goldwater, and they have only been doubling down on that move since.

You have to admit that the more overt rhetoric was outside of the mainstream for a little bit before the whole tea party movement. The sentiment was still there but they kept it under wraps better, now everyone's feeling emboldened, not mincing words/dog whistling anymore and taking their masks hoods off

True, the dog whistles these days are starting to mirror vile hate speech more and more.
 
I've always known the Republican Party to be a party full of racists that only used coded language in order to attract brainless minority votes. Looks like being overt about it didn't change anything though. The amount of Mexican Trump supporters from Central California that I know :x :|

While Trump's appeal is most based on white identity politics, he does have an element of toxic masculinity identity politics. He is especially appealing to guys who don't have post secondary education.

So I can see how a small percentage of Chicanos, especially rural and Chicano men of limited education would be attracted to Trump's crude and macho persona.
 
Carter and Reagan had them

Bush Sr. and Clinton to my knowledge did not

Bush Jr. had one is specific agencies, not as wide spread

Obama had a pay freeze because of what was happening at the time.
 
The NYPD said Thursday that President Donald Trump’s enormous slate of proposed budget cuts would take away “critical” funding the department uses to fight terrorism in New York.
The cuts could impact everything from active-shooter training to intelligence analysis to bomb squad equipment, police said at a briefing with New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio on Thursday.
“Under the president’s proposal, nearly all federal funding to the NYPD would be eradicated,” James P. O’Neill, the New York City police commissioner, said during the briefing. “This funding is absolutely critical. It is the backbone of our entire counter-terrorism apparatus.”
