DAILY CALLER
— SOUTH AFRICA SHOCKED AFTER TRUMP DINGS COUNTRY FOR SEIZING WHITE FARMERS’ LAND – Chris White (DIERSEN: Of course, anti-Whites in America what want government to seize everything that Whites own and turn it over to minorities. Anti-Whites blame Whites for all the problems that minorities have had, are having, and will have. Anti-Whites, their operatives, and their dupes especially blame Whites who are Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time. I should write a book about Whites in Wheaton, in Glen Ellyn, in Milton Township, in DuPage County, and in Illinois who serve as operatives or as dupes for anti-Whites. They promote hatred against those who are White, Trump supporters, Protestant, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, male, older, rich, gun owners, German American, draft avoiders, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time.)
