Trump Effect: She ran over child because she was a 'Mexican'

Every time one reads one of these stories one cannot help but understand that America is at a flex point. Many people scoff whenever the Trump Effect is mentioned for these incidents. It is apropos.

posted. I'm including the story in the thread below. It's repulsive.

When I think of people I know who voted for him/support him (mainly childhood friends who I only chat with a couple of times a year) I want to scream to them: "This is what you've helped to create!"

I'm getting a New Orleans vibe, but not quite... it's something else.

Also, why does he hide his face behind that huge microphone? This approach just looks unprofessional. Rachel doesn't do that. Chris Hayes doesn't do that. David Packman doesn't do that. It's not like this guy can't "project" his voice loudly... I imagine that a lapel-mic or a desk mic would work just fine.

The green-screen effect is awful! You can see the background image DIRECTLY THROUGH HIS EYEBALLS (or eyeglasses). What's going on with that? That's an amateur's mistake to make... and I wonder why he hasn't noticed it (or bothered to fix it).
