Trump is rhetorically targeting MS13 as a PR strategy for the upcoming midterms: ...... First thing Monday morning, the White House issued a press release called “What You Need To Know About The Violent Animals Of MS-13.” By using his communications shop to drive this message, Trump made it clear MS-13 is going to get the “Willie Horton” treatment. Horton was an African-American serving a life-sentence in Massachusetts. During a weekend furlough he escaped and raped a woman. Vice President George H.W. Bush highlighted the incident in a 1988 President campaign television ad against Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis. The “soft on crime” label helped swing the election significantly in Bush’s favor. The press release mentions the family members of victims of some of MS-13’s most infamous attacks. In the future, you can assume the names of the actual perpetrators will become household names. Donald Trump has already mused about shutting down the government in September if he doesn’t get the funding for his border wall. MS-13 will be Exhibit A for why the enormous expenditure is supposedly a national emergency. Granted, Trump has made similar threats before and backed down, but he is itching for a fight and believes racial demagoguery is his ticket to electoral salvation. Democrats better be prepared to fight back. palmerreport.com No. Democrats should NOT adopt MS13 as their pet cause and fight for them if they want to win. The fact is MS13 are the kind of people who tattoo Animal on their bodies. So if someone calls them animals, who cares? Hell, that's the image they want. But Democrats are stupid so .... they're liable to make MS13 their newest pet cause.
