The world is watching in disbelief as the President of the United States goes full Aryan. After coaxing black and brown voters into his tent, Trump loaded a gun, trained it at their heads, and blocked the exits.

Trump’s racism surprises exactly no one, but his unprecedented aggression in arresting black membersof Congress and sending brown migrants to a torture prison without legal process hints at real strategy from an administration otherwise known for incompetence.

Political writers often quip that Trump’s racial animus is performative: red meat thrown to a carnivorous base, a little candy to keep MAGA extremists standing back and standing by. Plus, daily outrage keeps media focus where Trump wants it: on him.

But Trump is not just feeding and entertaining his base, he’s simultaneously trying to goad democrats-- racial minorities in particular-- into violence. He’s deliberately trying to incite race riots in the streets, complete with looting and mayhem, as predicate to martial law.

America for me, Sudan for thee: the race-based immigration pivot

In late March, Trump’s Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem put on full makeup and a push-up bra to pose as jailer at a human zoo in El Salvador. She stood in front of brown human props caged in forever cells “stuffed to the rafters” even though the vast majority of them have never been convicted of a crime.

Trump wants to boot 20 million brown and black immigrants out of the country with no thought of the resulting labor shortage he’s creating for farmers, construction, and health care providers. He asked dictator Bukele to build additional gulags for that purpose, and, in the meantime, has begun sending migrants to Sudan, a country to which they have no ties. On Wednesday, another judge found that Trump violated another federal court order by deporting brown migrants, without legal process, to a country so dangerous the State Department warns people not to set foot there.
