Irresponsible, rabble-rousing "Madman in Chief"

"Madman in chief."   That's the headline on the home page of Huffington Post last night after another day of dangerous vitriol from Donald Trump.  He has sunk to new lows of enflaming hatred, taking advantage of this unthinkable human loss. 

I'm not going to repeat the mix of hatred, vitriol, and lies, nor the exploitation of fear and rage, that he spews out.  Once again, he reminded everyone that he had been right about the danger and hinted that, because Obama refuses to do anything, he must secretly favor the Islamic terrorists -- and should resign.

Dear God, please save us from demagogues who see themselves as our saviors.

Let him so over-play this hand that a tsunami of backlash drowns him out.   He reached a new low last night with his proposal that neighbors who don't report suspicious behavior should themselves be punished.   Trump's America is beginning to sound a lot like Nazi Germany and the Cold War, East German Stassi police state.
