Why are so many Southern and rural white men building arsenals in their basements?

Why are so many Southern and rural white men so afraid of blacks, gays, women, immigrants, culture, education, and science…and therefore support the Fascism of Donald Trump? Why are they trying to foment a race war? So many of them remind me of the Germans of the 1930′s. Hurting economically, ready to lash out, and blaming everyone but themselves.

Indeed they do cling to their guns and their bibles. I like the Bible (most of it at least), and I respect trained self-defense. I support the military and the police when they act lawfully. But those preparing for the up-coming race war with their arsenal, bunkers, and tinfoil hats are indeed armed and dangerous.

Yes, today’s paranoid gun nuts (still, thank God, a minority of gun owners) are extremely dangerous. They blame Democrats for Trump. They blame Israel for Hitler. They blame gay people for Matthew Shepard. They blame blacks for racism. They blame immigrants for corporate outsourcing. They blame anyone and everyone without ever looking in the mirror. Or realizing that they look and sound ridiculous. Ridiculous and pathetic but still dangerous. A lot like the KKK.

Boy, a heckuva lot of Southern and rural white men sure love bullying, violence, and war. I know. I grew up in Tennessee.

Maybe the better example is not Germany in the 1930′s but the South in the 1860′s.

I explain why I am endorsing Hillary Clinton for President, including the story of when I worked with her during her time as Senator of New York.

I’m joined by callers as a discuss the future of the Supreme Court with the vacancy left by Justice Antonin Scalia passing away. I also discuss the Koch brothers and other wealthy donors paying to have George Mason University, a public university, named after Antonin Scalia.

I’m joined by Sarah McBride, the Campaigns and Communications Manager for LGBT Progress at the Center for American Progress.

Sarah gives an extremely candid interview as to what it’s like to be a Transgendered person. When she first knew at four years old, when she told her parents at the age of 21, and much in between. She also takes a question from a caller on bathroom use. It was a very fascinating and very human interview.

I discuss how Donald Trump has flip-flopped countless times on major issues like abortion, the minimum wage, and more. I also discuss whether Donald Trump has any right to complain about Bill Clinton’s marital infidelities considering his own past on the matter.

I’m joined by callers as I discuss why people who try to say things like “both sides are equally as bad” about the Democrats vs. Republicans and Hillary vs. Trump are flat out wrong.

Republican Party leaders are waking up this morning, scratching their heads and wondering how they ended up with Donald Trump.

To find the answer, they need to look in the mirror.

I discuss lessons learned from the Holocaust that are applicable today in Syria.

I discuss how Donald Trump has been endorsed by the Grand Wizard of the KKK in Virginia, and why his campaign for President is a lot like ‘the dog who caught the car.’

Also, I’m joined by callers as we discuss comedian Larry Wilmore’s use of the ‘N-word’ toward President Obama during the White House correspondents’ dinner.

I’m joined by callers as I discuss sexism in politics, including the recent comments from Donald Trump about Hillary Clinton playing ‘the woman card.’
