The white conservative society in this country is becoming too predictable. What did they do in the South in the past, all too often? Each time they needed a fall guy, they blamed a luckless black child or man. Just think of how many generations of white conservatives lived their lives knowing that the wrong person took the blame for their wrong-doing and they got away with it. Over generations, it became a natural thing to do.

With Trump we're seeing the same practices being applied, but this isn't some desolate country road where they could do their horrible deeds without anyone around to ask questions. So, it is all backfiring on them. We're seeing the same shameless practices and Trump looks like a loser for using them.
