Counterpunch coverage: Trump’s Fascist Rally Disrupted

The following coverage from CounterPunch, unlike most of the press which refuses to use the “F” word, labeled Trump’s rally in Hershey, PA as what is was, a fascist rally. It also covered the disruption of this by a brave protester from Refuse Fascism.

excerpt from Midnight Ramble: A Fascist Rally in Hershey, Pennsylvania

When a woman protester was removed from the rally, the president screamed “Get her out” and shamed the security card expelling her for being “politically correct” by removing the woman too gently, without violence. “Get her out. Get her out,” Trump commanded while his devotees pointed and shrieked at the demonstrator – a courageous young member of Refuse Fascism who donned a #MeToo hat and held as a sign saying, “Grabbing Power Back.”

“See, these guys want to be so politically correct,” Trump said of the security guard trying to remove the demonstrator from the arena. “You see that? I’ll tell you, law enforcement’s so great. That particular guy wanted to be so politically correct.”

The article doesn’t mention this but Trump’s next words were “We don’t want to be politically correct”, directly threatening and inciting violence against non-violent protesters.

IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY, WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT A FASCIST AMERICA!

NOW IS the TIME WHEN WE MUST RISE UP and ACT to STOP the CONSOLIDATION of TRUMP MAGA FASCISM. For the lives of people here and around the world we must refuse unlawful and inhumane orders… we must fill the streets and town squares in non-violent protest—not stopping until we become millions — not relenting until this regime is no longer able to implement its program or maintain its hold on power.
