Trump a window on Hitler’s rise

I’ve often wondered how Adolph Hitler was able to bamboozle the people of Germany, especially Germany’s faith leaders, into accepting and supporting his hateful agenda of evil racism and warmongering. I did not think the same sort of situation could ever happen in our country.

With Donald Trump’s rise to political power in America, I am not so sure. Some of America’s faith leaders, perhaps many, are cheering Trump on.

The 2016 Republican Party, primarily a white people’s political party, is in disarray. In regard to race, the party is reaping what it sowed for the past 40 years.
