I was working at a local tv station in 2016, and every time I walked into a room with Trump's head on it, I'd make a joke about the Apprentice or Biff or Home Alone or whatever. I honestly thought he had no chance in hell of winning. I just kept thinking, "Do people not remember who Donald Trump is?" Turns out I just didn't understand people. Not saying I do now, but at least I know I don't.
Hate and racism are a hell of a drug to some people.
