Yeah. I’m skeptical of the number. I’m not skeptical of a dramatic increase. If you consume MSNBC daily, you woke up on Wednesday and literal Hitler won the highest office in the land. Concentration camps. Torture. Etc. all if that is guaranteed to be just months away. Pretty scary stuff.

Exhibit A: election results.

I realize that Trump engages in rhetoric that you want to draw an equivalency too.

What I’ve said, repeatedly, is that it is not the traditional identity politics that the Democrats engage in - which was firmly rebuked in the election we just witnessed.

Trump's attacks on Judge Gonzalo Curiel were an example of identity politics. His attacks on Rep. John Lewis's district were as well. He has never shied away from identity politics.

Editorial: Judge Curiel and the Flimsiness of Identity Politics - Washington Examiner

There’s something wrong with politics when it becomes personal—especially when we’re wrong about the person. Back in May of 2016, candidate Donald Trump picked a fight with Judge Gonzalo Curiel. Trump had been losing a case against his Trump University; the presiding Judge was Gonzalo Curiel, an...

I realize you desperately want to WhatAboutTrump on this for some reason.
