As I have explained in many articles, I would never vote for the rabid neoconservative Kamala Harris, because neoconservatives crave expansion of the U.S. empire so much that they are willing to expand it even if that will require starting WW3 in order to do the job — they are supremely evil.
However, Donald Trump clearly IS a bigot. It’s just a fact.
On September 14th, Reuters headlined “Trump pledges to deport Haitians in Ohio city if elected” and reported:
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump pledged on Friday to conduct mass deportations of Haitian immigrants from the Ohio city of Springfield, even though the majority of them are in the United States legally.
The city for days has found itself at the center of a social media maelstrom after right-wing agitators latched onto false claims that Haitian arrivals were eating household pets.
“We will do large deportations in Springfield, Ohio,” Trump said at a press conference at his golf resort near Los Angeles.
The majority of the 15,000 Haitians in Springfield are there legally. Trump’s longstanding pledge to conduct mass deportations usually refers to those in the country illegally.
Trump did not repeat the assertion he made during Tuesday’s presidential debate with Democrat Kamala Harris that immigrants were eating dogs and cats, remarks that have been widely mocked. …
Trump has cited the tensions in Springfield as another example of the need for hardline immigration polices. The influx of Haitians has boosted the economy but also has strained social services.
“I’m angry about illegal Haitian migrants taking over Springfield, Ohio. You see that mess, don’t you?” Trump said at a rally in Las Vegas, later on Friday.
“I’m angry about young American girls being raped and murdered by savage criminal aliens that come into our country very easily, but very illegally,” he added later in his speech.
On July 16th, USA Today had headlined “Long a divisive figure, Don Jr. says Trump is a changed man after attempted assassination”, and they reported that despite Trump’s senior son believing that the first assassination-attempt against his father had made his father a changed man, “Now again, it’s Trump so you’re still going to be reactionary.” In other words: Don Jr. was admitting that his father is a “reactionary.” And bigotry is perhaps the cardinal feature of any reactionary — might even be the defining feature. This allegation, about Trump, came from Trump’s own son, who certainly knows his father well. Regardless of whether Don Jr.’s opinion that an assassination attempt had produced in his father a “new man,” Don Jr. was still acknowledging that this “new man” would remain a “reactionary.” Don Sr.’s statement on September 13th about Haitians proved the truth of this when he promised to “do large deportations in Springfield, Ohio” if he becomes America’s next President.
In other words: America’s voters are being offered only a choice between a lying bigot as America’s next President, or else a thoroughly pathological person who craves to become effectively the emperor over the entire world if she wins this electoral contest. On a lesser-of-two evils basis, Trump should be the next President, but regardless of the outcome, it WON’T be due to America’s being a democracy, because it’s NOT.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.

I told all of my family members not to get romantically involved with someone who weighs over 400 lbs. I am bigoted against mentally retarded people. I told all of my family members not to get romantically involved with someone who has an IQ under 60. I am bigoted against very short and very tall people.

Eric’s just lucky that the cat / dog munchers have not infested Vermont. And by the way it is not a crime to be a “bigot” in the former USA – at least not quite yet.
After learning the news this day of the aborted assassination attempted on President Trump, my husband and I suffered through a bunch of ads on (non mainstream) TV from the K.Harris campaign. I said “Do they have no common decency–that they cannot hold their ads on the day PDJT’s life was almost taken?! Then I come to The Duran this evening, and find your ill-timed and insensitive column title that Donald Trump is a bigot. Have you no heart, no common decency, no respect for another man’s life or the trauma his family went through today? Your article is wrong,… Read more »
I have compassion for the Haitians — some of whom are legal immigrants in this country — who will be barbarically treated by Trump if he becomes President, but I have no compassion for either Harris or Trump, because both of them are more perpetrators of evil than victims of it. Harris’s being probably even more dangerous to the world than Trump would be, doesn’t mean that Trump would be good for the world. The choice between them results from America’s being a dictatorship by the super-rich; it doesn’t result from any real democracy. You and Penrose fantasize that this… Read more »
While you obsess about every little thing Trump likes or dislikes, I have only one question.
What does he think about WARS?
If the DEVIL ran on an anti-war platform, I would vote for him or her.
CIA has f’d Haiti for years, long before JFK assassination CIA asset George de Mohrenschildt was assigned there. As always it is the US and Wall Street’s Vile Empire behind the death, destruction, horror, war, and trillionaire perversion stalking this world. get real Eric. Obviously Eric has never lived in Inglewood Los Angeles either??
As to the legal immigrant ID of some Haitians: if they have not gone through the law-prescribed process to become legal American citizens, then they are Temporary Protected Status (TPS): an immigration designation available to Haitians and foreign nationals from 15 other countries that allows them to live and work in the U.S. for up to 18 months. There is no pathway to citizenship with TPS, and immigrants can be deported once the period of time covered by the authorization ends. They are not immigrants who have done what is necessary by law to become legal US citizens. You are… Read more »
Usually I like and agree with your articles but whether or not these invaders are sanctioned by a regime, that is clearly anti the American way of life, does not make them legal… no vetting process no legal status makes them illegal. Europe has the same problem with migrants from Africa all of it a ploy by n-a-z-i Soros, et al, to destroy the West. Donald Trump is the ONLY hope for a world not ruled by oligarchs but I fear it is too little too late… and he may be an undercover oligarch to facilitate a more peaceful takeover… Read more »
I dont give a damn how these knuckle draggers slithered into the country. They have no business being dumped upon a populace that didn’t ask for them to be there. They’re reckless, theiving, murderous parasites who should never have been allowed in. And they’re just the tip of the iceberg.
Exactly right!!
The question is why Biden’s filthy stinking war criminal regime infiltrated the cat and dog eaters into the country… why? Not even good cheap labour.
The anti-christ has convinced you liberals that someone else can pay for your ignorance. It’s not bigoted to remedy illegal migration OR reverse the kalergi plan / UN replacement agenda / Albert Pike “prophecy”.
MOST billionaires want to eliminate the 1st World white population and lower global living standards. We’ll see what happens come November.
I hope you live long enough Eric Zuesse, to get culturally enriched by the snake worshipping Haitians, who practice demonic Vodou.
You are obviously not aware, but these Haitian individuals are little more than shaved chimpanzees, who gained the ability to speak speak French ebonics (Haitian Creole), cursed with the temperament of feral simians.
The Caucasian Americans (the Humans) living in Springfield, Ohio, would be in less danger if the local zoo in Columbus, Ohio, displaced all the animals in the zoo, onto the streets of Springfield, compared with the 20,000 feral untermensch Haitians that are now prowling the once civilised city.
Thankfully, there is a solution for the Caucasian Americans living in Springfield, Ohio.
It is called ‘The Second Amendment to the United States Constitution’, the right to keep and bear arms, which could quickly correct the predicament that was inflicted on them by the Trotskyists in Washington, D.C., only if they had the determination to save their race and Country.
Pat Buchanan, where are you.?
For Erik Zuesse to encounter them, they would have to be transported to La La Land, which is where he lives. 🙂
la la land,. Yep…. seems like Vermont alright! The only good thing there is the DMV.
When making this comparison, one has to be careful to not give the chimpanzees a bum rap.
Eric is already an antique… like me, lol.
Under no circumstances does a small town experience an incursion of foreigners amounting to a third of its population, except by aggression. This incursion is aggression against the people of Springfield as it disrupts their way of life. Even if the immigrants are peaceful and orderly, it is an imposition by an external force (the federal government), that could never happen without the use of force: by definition an aggression. One immigrant is an immigrant, 20000 is an invasion. If you disagree, look at Northern Ireland. The British Crown encouraged large numbers of Scottish settlers to live there hundreds of… Read more »
Getting rid of the illegals should be a top priority of Trump’s campaign. We need a massive deportation campaign.
You Eric, say that Trump wants to “conduct mass deportations of Haitian immigrants” and that “even though the majority of them are in the United States legally”. There are hundreds of thousands of Haitians that come into the US every year. You say that the majority of them are in the US legally, but what about the other 49% (by definition of minority). Lets just assume there are one hundred thousand Haitians in the US (this is a low estimate by the way), that would mean that there could be forty nine thousand that are here illegally. If you think… Read more »
If you do not think low life criminals are flowing into out country by the thousands then you are just plain stupid. I support Trump is deporting every single person who is here illegally regardless of skin color or nationality. We have too many damn people here now and the last thing we need are the caliber of people who do not respect the law enough to enter the country legally. Furthermore I think every traitor who supports illegal immigration should be deported or hung from an overpass.
That is exactly IT, Jdog~we do not want people to come here illegally, and especially en masse, and not screened in any way. Thousands of people bussed or flown into cities or towns that come from totally different cultures than the USA, that may bring in diseases and viruses our nation has not become immune to or has erradicated in the past, who may be criminals released from their countries’ prisons, that may be members of drug cartels or terrorist groups that want to set up shop here, and that aim to take jobs away from Americans–particularly entry-level physical labor… Read more »
I haveva family member who came into the USA legally. He followed all the rules, filled out the paperwork, was a good student and resident here. He then wanted to stay here, but keep his citizenship with his home country. He went through a long process that was also expensive for him, but he did what the law required in order for him tonlive here. Hecreceived no free cell phone, medical care, food, transportation, or housing. No NGO provided transportation fir him to go to the city orvtown of his choice. That we reward intruders with thousands of dollars in… Read more »
Since when does being a traditionalist automatically make a person a bigot? Mr. Z is doing a bit of a stretch in his column. And Mr. Z’s use of PDJT jr.’s own son to smear his father as a bigot, is way off base and just plain nasty. What kind of person trashes a man the day after he had a brush with death, and also uses the man’s own son as his pawn to make his fabricated slur? The man’s son and the rest of his family have been terrorized by both of the killing attempts…what kind of Grinch… Read more »
Personally my opinion is that Eric has a weakness for cat kebabs.
