During an appearance on CNN, Cardona said that the Trump rally was “jaw-dropping” and that ridicule of Puerto Rico as an island of “garbage” was particularly offensive.
“It was not just deeply offensive and incredibly insulting,” she said. "As a strategist I thought it was so, so stupid. I mean, they are not just insulting Puerto Ricans on the island. They are insulting Latinos in general and Puertorriqueños that live in battleground states.
“We don’t like what was said about Puerto Rico, and we know how to take the trash out, Donald Trump,” Hostin continued. “Trash that has been collecting since 2016, and that’s you, Donald Trump. And fellow Puerto Ricans, trash collection day is November 5, 2024. Don’t forget it.”
The Maga island of trash is the enemy within a free USA.
‘Dark, gothic MAGA’: ‘Full display’ of hate at Trump rally leaves critics reeling
“The point here is that fascism is on full display, openly: no dog whistles, no plausible deniability,” said Kathleen Belew, an associate professor of history at Northwestern University whose work has focused on the white supremacist movement in the United States.
“It’s a show of power and another attempt to make this look and feel normal,” Belew added. “And it will not just magically disappear after the election, regardless of the outcome. In fact, it might be worth thinking through the very likely possibility that this kind of display suggests that this candidate and this movement don’t care that much about the outcome.”
One journalist called Trump’s event “the most overtly fascist mass rally in New York since 1939”—referring to a pro-Nazi rally held that year at Madison Square Garden—and criticized media coverage of the former president’s remarks, pointing to a now-changed USA Today headline as a particularly stark example.
The lying republican enemy within traitors are going full Nazi
Rat is Maga? Maga is Latin for witch so it makes sense.
