“We will not allow Trump or anybody else to divide us up based on the color of our skin, our religion, our nation and nationality, or our sexual orientation.”

Gosh, doesn’t that sounds exactly like the definition of the Democrat Identity Politics Totem Poll – everybody is segregated by skin color, nationality / multiculture, and sexual orientation on which they base their voting and priority messaging? Oh wait – that religion part?
