The death in Atlanta of Rayshard Brooks, was a new tragedy that revived the racism and the police in America, after the death of the Afro-American George Floyd; brutally.
As of race, Trump plays with fire like no other president has in a century. If it happened to other occupants of the White House to approach the yellow line, even the franchise sometimes, trying to play on the resentment of white Americans in a way not always very subtle, no one so openly fanned the flames, with as much insistence and frenzy, as Trump.
His attack on elected democrats occurred the same day that his government was to make mass arrests of illegal immigrants. And, a few days earlier, he received at the White House some of the most violent spokesmen of the extreme right on the Internet, and assured them that he would find another way to sort out citizens and non-citizens, despite a decision of the Supreme Court which prevented him from adding a question on citizenship to the next decennial population census to be held in 2020.
In addition Trump adopts harmful measures against the black peoples and demonstrators such as the force and excessive gas and he describe it « The beautiful Sight », knowing that this type of violence had been suppressed for several centuries.
He has been criticized by the International Association of Police Chiefs and Law Enforcement Officials across the United States for working to build trust between the police and African Americans.
The department of the police in Suffolk on Tweeter said: « we will never forgive him against these harmful measures against the demonstrators and his encouragement of abuse of treatment against the prisoners, and we will never forgive him in the future ». So will Trump access the election next November?
