Those of us like me who grew up in the #NewYork area knew #Trump was a fucking sleazebag in the 1980s
But the #justice system let him slide time and again, eyes glazed over
#Punitive force feeds the #crime you intend to stop- for low grade #crimes by the #poor (that #bigotry always demands heavy #punishment for)
But #narcissism #amorality #plutocracy, plotting great #malice, persistently: utterly different
They are always obvious as hell for years, decades
They can be stopped early
Must be

A local official in Haiti says the death toll in a horrific gang attack last week on a small town in central Haiti has risen to 115. The attack on residents of the town of Pont-Sondé on Oct. 3 was one of the biggest massacres that Haiti has seen in recent history. Myriam Fièvre, mayor of the nearby city of Saint-Marc, said Wednesday that the toll had risen to 115 and would likely keep rising because authorities are still looking for bodies and haven’t been able to access certain areas of the town.
