Will future analysis of the dt era show him to be a leader of the white supremacist movement of hate and violence or an opportunistic catalyst that exposed it and used it for personal gain?
Throughout history men, mostly, have spotted an opening through which they could crawl to gain power by pointing fingers at others.
These bullies cared not for any pain or death they caused FOR those others as long as they won.
The ends always justified the means.
A solar eclipse would trigger the one person not afraid the sun would be gone forever to play on everyone's fears and gain respect and power over the town once it returned as he said it would.
Perhaps it was a religious man who told everyone to pray with him for the return of normalcy.
A sort of make our community great again charlatan.
But the only way those phonies of the past were able to ply their trade was by using the ignorance of their audience.
If enough of those who listened to him were, for lack of a better term, idiots he was just about home free.
These undereducated ones joined the willing 'rats' and became lemmings in their march toward the cliff of societal suicide.
So I guess we could say everything old is new again!
There's nothing new under the sun!!
