Picture if you will, this message for Trumpie

John Amato writes:
This broadcast aired on March 4, 1960, but you could hear Serling’s voice giving the same speech on CNN today.
Serling: The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy. And a thoughtless frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own. And the children, and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is, these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.
Does that sound familiar? How ugly and disgusting has it been to see Trump’s message of intolerance, racism, fear and suspicion finding a warm home to a large segment of Republican voters?
