The Indiana GOP Senate primary is bordering on openly racist
I know some here will think "duh", but I've always felt like any racism was always "dog whistles" at best and most of the time people had the decency to not be open about it. But this Indiana GOP Senate race is downright nauseating. If its not each candidate proclaiming how much of a supporter of Donald Trump they are, its how strong they are on the wall and immigration. The ads for Todd Rokita, who I believe is a current member of the House, are getting borderline openly racist. His 1st ads talked about "dangerous sanctuary cities", "liberals rioting in the streets", "liberals disrespecting our flag and the service of our military" (with NFL players kneeling in the background) but now his big thing is making English the official language and his latest ad mentions a stat where "44% of people in California don't speak English" and If Pelosi has her way "say adios to the America you grew up in."
This is what Trump is bringing out, people don't feel afraid anymore to exploit racial fears. I mean, its always been there behind the scenes, but this is right out in the open w/ a candidate endorsing the ad in their voice at the end. I know Joe Donnelly isnt the most popular Senator on here, but look at what you'll get if he doesn't win in Nov. And you know how much the GOP wants this 1? They are already running anti-Donnelly ads all the time and its 7 months until the election.
