Bahemian people are drug dealers. Does this sound familiar. Dog whistle for black/brown people.
What is wrong with us that we let this rotting soulless piece of shit remain in our government.

"Donald Trump has claimed the Bahamas is full of "very bad gang members", as he defended a decision not to let survivors of Hurricane Dorian enter the US.
A day after survivors of the storm were ordered off a boat from Freeport to Fort Lauderdale, Florida, if they did not have a US visa, and the official death toll on the islands rose to 45, Mr Trump doubled down on a decision not to do more to accommodate those struck by the record-equalling storm.
"We have to be very careful. Everyone needs totally proper documentation. I don't want to allow people who weren't supposed to be in the Bahamas to come into the United States, including some very bad people, the president told reporters at the White House.

Look, the Bahamas had some tremendous problems with people going to the Bahamas that weren't supposed to be there.
