Trump Fans Lose Their Minds After Being Brilliantly Trolled By Mexican Boy

Earlier today, at the anti-Trump protests in Burlingame, California, Al Jazeera Plus captured an iconic image of an adorable young boy holding a sign that ironically read “Make America Mexico Again,” probably in reference to the large swathes of territory that the United States seized from Mexico during the Mexican American War 1846-1848.

The response from conservatives on Twitter was horrifying, laying bear the heartless radicalization of Trump supporters. They see no problem in demonizing a little child and dutifully repeating the talking points that conservative media have been drilling into them for the past eight years. It speaks volumes to the issues we will face after this election, win or lose – how are we going to heal the gaping divides that Trump and his hateful rhetoric have pulled to the surface?
