Michael Savage is not an isolated case. He is the mature product of thirty years of American radio talk shows, from Rush Limbaugh onward, who have patiently built a cultural and cognitive infrastructure based on a simple principle: hate, repeated long enough and loud enough, becomes normal. Chamber pot rhetoric didn't slip into American public discourse by accident. It was introduced deliberately, one issue at a time, one audience at a time, one decade at a time. Savage, who holds a doctorate, a detail Nicole Morgan rightly emphasizes in her book Red Hate and White Fear, knows exactly what he's doing. It's not ignorance: it's strategy.
Here is what Michael Savage posted:
“A baby here becomes an instant citizen, and then they bring the entire family in from China or India or some other hellhole on the planet. … [T]here’s almost no loyalty to this country amongst the immigrant class coming in today. No, they’re not like the European Americans of today and their ancestors. … We’ve gone from the melting pot to the chamber pot.”
Savage also derides American Civil Liberties Union lawyer Cecillia Wang, a U.S. citizen who argued before the Supreme Court against Trump’s executive order banning birthright citizenship. Savage claims she is “pushing to destroy our national identity” and to “turn us into a colony of China.”
Here is the article of Robert Rich that posed the question: Why did the president of the United States repost this excrement?
Michael savage has been one of the leaders of the conservative talk shows which paved the way for Trump coming. He need them.
Nothing is spared, not even sick children: one of the most virulent stars of these shows, Michael Savage who, it should be noted, has a doctorate, attacks autism that day. " Now the disease of the day is autism," the Joker yells into his microphone. "Do you know what autism is? Well, I'll tell you. In 99% of cases, it's a spoiled child who hasn't been put back in his place. That's autism. What do they tell me that these kids are screaming or staying silent? Don't they have a father to tell them: "Stop your circus. It won't get you anywhere in life. Stop acting smart. Stand up straight. Become a man. And stop standing on your behind yelling and screaming, you idiot ."
