9:02Now PlayingDonald Trump - the man who wants us to believe that he didn't want to cause a panic among the population - spent the entire day on Thursday trying to create a panic. And in his desperation, he engaged in plenty of racism. The President is not well, and these rantings on Twitter are not the rantings of a sane person. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Yesterday, Donald Trump had a very public and, uh, to be honest, quite racist meltdown on Twitter, but it wasn't just one meltdown. He actually suffered multiple different meltdowns all throughout the day. So let's start with the very first one. This is, uh, one of the first meltdown tweets that Donald Trump sent. This is also the one, uh, was fairly racist. When you read between the lines here it is, the Democrats never even mentioned the words, law and order at their national convention. That's where they're coming from. If I don't win America, suburbs will be overrun with low income projects and our kissed agitators looters, and of course, friendly protesters. So here's the thing. We know what he means when he says low income housing projects, we know that he is referring to poor black people. And he's trying to scare these, I guess, racist, suburbanites into thinking that if you vote for Joe Biden, you're going to have poor black people move into your neighborhood.
That's just, what's going to happen. Even though that that hasn't happened. Anytime we've had a democratic president in the past, it's definitely totally going to happen now. But here's the thing that I don't think Trump understands. Is there a lot of inherent racism in the United States? Absolutely. Does the thought of being near a poor black person terrify the average American citizen? No, it does not. And it's not going to terrify enough of them to let you, uh, retain control of the white house as for all the other stuff, simply not going to happen. It's happening now in Trump's America. We're literally seeing it on our streets. A few streets, to be honest, this is not why it's spread by the way. We're literally talking about a couple of cities where things have gotten out of control in Trump's America. You're not seeing rioters. You're not even seeing protesters in the vast, I mean 99.9% of American cities.
Aren't seeing anything at all, but he wants you to think that what's happening in Portland or what had happened in Kenosha is somehow coming to the streets of Birmingham, Alabama, or Oxford, Mississippi. Y'all best be where he's playing on the fears and ignorance of the voters down here in the South. That's what he's doing. Let's see it happened all the time. And the worst part is I see a lot of the idiots down here that actually do believe it seriously. If you haven't taken a trip through the American South, since Trump became president, I seriously suggest you do that. You know, I know there's a lot of people who do what we do here. Uh, you know, political analysis, things like that. If y'all, haven't actually been to this area of the country, since Trump became president, you're kind of not getting the full picture of how bad it really, this is a different world, a world you need to experience to fully understand how people like Trump come to power because it's sickening.
I get to watch it in real time and it's terrifying. Uh, so anyway, okay, there's your first meltdown of the day here is the second one. And this is actually a two part tweet cause he couldn't get it all on one. And for a little bit of context, uh, Trump went to Michigan yesterday, did another one of his rallies where most people were not wearing masks. So most likely going to be another, uh, quote super spreader event.
