A pair of Trump supporters were caught on camera this past weekend issuing unhinged threats to a left-wing bookstore in Berkeley, California.
The video, which was posted on YouTube by Berkeley’s Revolution Books, shows the Trump supporters coming into the store and confronting people working there.
The video begins with a woman Trump supporter asking a store staff member if she really thinks “I’m racist because I support our president?”
“Yes, basically, yes,” the staff member replies.
A male Trump supporter, wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat, called the staffer “commie scum” and told her that “we’re going to burn down your bookstore.”
The staffer informed them that she had video of them threatening to burn down the store and told them to “please leave” the premises.
“This is America, f*ck you!” the man shouted at her.
And THAT is the result of being exposed to programming from Fox News, Sinclair Broadcasting, and Right Wing Twitter accounts.
Though to be fair this guy would clearly be a racist asshole despite where they got his news.
It's just that racist assholes know where to go to have their prejudices and hatred refueled with misinformation.
