20. I think given how extreme 45 v2.0 has been

people like Gallego will finally "get the message", the hard way.

There are many like him and his family who are here in the U.S. who don't have any "generational knowledge" of what this country has done over the past 200+ years, and have never been exposed to nor taught about the experiences of this country's violent cycles, not only ethnically against certain Europeans, but more so, what those despised Europeans decided to do against any non-Europeans in order to raise their status in the great American hierarchy.

But many families DO know what happened historically in the U.S., - notably after Reconstruction (which is hardly taught) -



This "outrage" of elected "coloreds" (a/k/a n****rs) eventually prompted "Jim Crow" after the conclusion of the Civil War.

The election of Barack Obama as President and later election of Kamala Harris as VP have caused similar head-explosions akin to what happened during Reconstruction with the election of black members of Congress. And so once again, we see the U.S. now going through yet another cycle of the mass implementation of the latest version of "Jim Crow", in this case going back to de jure implementation to add to the de facto.
