To make jokes about a guy who ran his campaign on fear is tasteless, imo. He campaigned implicitly on white supremacy by denigrating basically every minority cohort in the nation.
Yes people live in fear. I've seen the children crying for their families and their own uncertain futures. I know individuals who have been racially harassed and threatened with violence.
Doesn't matter who you compare CWT's rein to, could have been Karmla Harris, it would have been in better taste.
