By “Abolish Suburbs,” Trump is referring to Biden’s support for a federal rule meant to desegregate them. It’s racism and white grievance through and through. https://t.co/6CISPrNGV1 https://t.co/jdAI56RymW— Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) July 15, 2020
There is nothing in that tweet that isn't a blunt racist appeal. Every item in that list, from Police to the suburbs, is here identified with white power over black and brown persons (because suburbs are white, donchaknow! No, they aren't, but Trump is stuck in NYC in the ' 70's, it's all he can imagine. "Suburbs" here mean Connecticut, at best.) And of course, without guns, how do we protect our wimmen from the rapists? Remember the rapists? Trump does.
This is the vision of America that inspired so many at his inaugural. Good that he's reminding us of that.
