Michael Cohen stated openly and freely that Trump speaks in code. He does. There is not a moment in his day when he is not selling himself to people for his 2020 run. All these statements are dog whistles. It is nearly impossible to listen to Trump without realizing he is campaigning 24/7.
His dog whistles are real and are causing populations of people to hate and kill.
This is a bit of a side story, but, "AlterNet" has linked Trump to real ideology that victimizes freedom and human rights.
...McCarthy’s chief aide was attorney Roy Cohn, (click here) who zealously attacked innocent people who were accused of being Communists (Reds), or soft on Communism (Pinkos). Many believed he lacked any sense of ethics or honor and he was much feared. Even after McCarthy fell from favor and then died in 1957, Cohn’s prominence continued and spent his remaining career as an attorney who often chose to represent reprehensible elements of society, including Organized Crime. He was also known for his wild social life.
Then, Roy Cohn met a young real estate entrepreneur named Donald Trump. The two men became close friends and Cohn impressed upon Trump how to exploit and play “hard ball” to gain ever more wealth and public influence....
Now, I normally would blow this off as a strange coincidence, but, the ideology is long standing with Trump. The link to METHODOLOGY to bring about victimization is all to obvious.
Trump wants to undermine Social Security and Medicare. I believe he means it. He is taking a stand against socialism because he best can then victimize those receiving entitlements as enemies of freedom and democracy. His use of language has a far different purpose than any normal use of language. He uses language as an assault to support his ideologies.
Trump cannot deny he is courting White Supremacists/Nationalists. He also cannot deny there is real violence in the world conducted by people that see him as a reason to act.

President Trump met with NATO secretary Jens Stoltenberg (click here) in the Oval Office Tuesday afternoon. Then he forced the poor guy to sit there while he vomited words all over reporters who shouted questions at him. It’s a thing Trump likes to do.
Two moments in particular stood out today, and they’re both the kind of thing that’ll have you breaking out your pocket Constitution and rereading the text of the 25th Amendment....
...While declaring his love for Germany, Trump said he’s proud that his father was born in the country. “Born in a very wonderful place in Germany, so I have a great feeling for Germany,” Trump said. Fred Trump was born in the Bronx....
There is one more odd thing. I have to find it....
Derek Black was interviewed by NPR. I found his ideas about White Nationalism and White Supremacy somewhat troubling as if one is exempt from hate.

Derek Black: (click here) My dad popularized the term "white nationalism" ... when he founded Stormfront and called it a white nationalist community, and he saw the distinction between white nationalism and white supremacy as being one that he didn't want anything bad for anyone else — he just wanted everybody to be forcibly put in different spaces, and that that was not about superiority, it was just about the well-being of everybody. ... Looking back on it, that is totally irrational. How exactly do you think you're going to forcibly separate everybody and that that's not supremacy?...
Perhaps the difference between White Nationalism and White Supremacy screams out loud to their members, but, I don't see it.
There is this nexus between Trump and White Nationalism/Supremacy and it cannot nor should it be igorned. He has developed a very toxic ideology all his life and now he is breeding it.
