Crime Expert: Crimes Spike Around Trump’s Election And Rhetoric | The Beat With Ari Melber | MSNBC

Trump and his allies have long referred to immigration as an ‘invasion’ of the country. Ari Melber, Monica Martinez and Brian Levin take a look deep look at the history of ‘invasion’ rhetoric and the ‘replacement’ theory. Brown University Professor Monica Martinez says the dangerous history of ‘invasion’ rhetoric dates back to the early 20th century where Mexican-Americans and Mexican nationals were killed by U.S. residents and officials that were ‘inspired by the rhetoric of politicians’ who painted Mexicans as ‘bandits and rapists.’

  1. Russian geopolitical strategy towards the US is to inflame racial divisions. So far they have been very effective.

    1. @Raptorman0909 And while they were doing it during the last election, Obama did NOTHING. He was commander in chief. he was the highest law enforcement authority.

      He.did.nothing.

  2. Funny how these White Nationalist say “their” country when my family and those in Mexico are indigenous to this country and THEY are actually the immigrants… They don’t seem to remember history or pretend it didn’t happen…

    1. TEXAS, NEW MEXICO, ARIZONA AND SOUTHERN CAL WERE ALL SPANISH TERRITORY . . . THE ENGLISH HAD JAMESTOWN, MAYBE PLYMOUTH LATER . . . THE REST WAS WILD, INDIAN TERRITORY . . . WHITES USED RELIGION AND A THING CALLED ‘MANAFEST DESTINY’ TO OVERWHELM AND FORCIBLY TAKE THE REST . . . SAD HISTORY.

  3. Imagine getting trump out of office and then collecting a thousand dollars a month on top of it. Andrew Yang 2020

    1. @J. Milton Jeffreys I bet a thousand dollars a month would help your life out in the trailer park bigly.

  4. Dumpie incites violence. “Shoot them” in a crowded rally and he laughs and encourages such violent rhetoric.
    It’s not different from screaming “fire” when there is no fire in a crowded theater.
    Shame on all white supremacist.

    1. @RUSSIAN SALAD DRESSING are you really proud of that name? Lol. You bot go back to Russia and try to bully Putin. Stay outta Americans business. Fyi, Cummings did more for this country than your Putin puppet did. You all know this, ypu just like the division of the current climate here. Your comments are predictable and dumb. Yet faux news groupies will eat it up because they are stuck in the matrix of media.

    2. Shame on white supremacist? They have no shame, very much the same as Republicans! Because of all the good in their opposition, they are ruthless and shameless! They see this as their strength and a necessary evil. These ignorant and evil extremist that Donald Trump has sided with against American ideals invented speak like necessary evils. These are dangerous, ugly and uncompromising people, they don’t care to understand you, they just want to destroy you and take what they want. Pretty much the way Donald Trump approaches problem solving and behaves. Donald Trump does not know how to discuss matters and be constructive, he resorts to destruction first and then replaces with what he wants. This is not a president, he is a tyrant and dictator, Donald Trump is America’s public enemy #1.

    1. Mark Bodder
      Psychological projection is a defense mechanism Republicans employ in order to cope with difficult feelings or emotions. Psychological projection involves projecting undesirable feelings or emotions onto someone else, rather than admitting to or dealing with the unwanted feelings.

    2. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren inspired the Antifa mass shooter. Democrats have blood on their hands again.

    3. Oh little dicky…if you legitimately cannot see why they are different then, you are confirming why people think trump supporters are stupid.

    1. @Dicky Jones because the thief in chief and his fellow friends in crime wont pass a bill to protect us from it happening again. If no threat than why mot pass a bill gor no threat? What harm could there be? But faux news have yaw so deceived you cant even reason with you

    2. @Mark Bodder you and Dicky Jones bring opinions based on your tiny intellects warped logic. You want me to listen to you, bring facts, because to me your opinion is irrelevant to the facts. Now let’s see if you can provide links to prove your claims and I’ll find links in rebuttal and the FACTS will prove your opinion as just more BS.

    3. @lea lai, America will not be taken hostage by Democrat Bolsheviks. The guns are there to protect Americans from you idiots.

  5. One is inclined to say “of course, the rotten orange stinks from the top – he is a criminal and criminals feel he is with them”.

  6. to say Trump is innocent is to say the rest of us are fools or stupid when will the people hold him accountable for his word or action

  7. He has put them in cages after demonizing them now they are being killed. He’s responsible for the shooting in El Paso. He needs to be impeached then arrested.

  8. Trump lied about El Paso the other month at his rally (that he hasn’t paid for yet) and made the city vulnerable to this violence that he perpetrated. Shame!

  9. Ah yes, the good old “caravan invasion” Whahaha they where supposed to be there within days of the midterms…… still waiting!

    1. Still waiting on that massive middle class tax cut we were supposed to get after the midterms as well. Its almost like donald trump is a fu**ing liar.
