RuPaul on Trump: Now I Understand How the World Allowed Hitler to Happen
RuPaul took to Twitter on Friday, reacting to Donald Trump’s election win and sharing how returning to normalcy feels impossible right now.
Echoing the feelings of many, Ru wrote, “Finding it hard to carry on ‘business as usual’ after America got a giant swastika tattooed on her forehead.”
She added, “As a kid, I couldn’t understand how the world could stand by and allow a Hitler to happen. Now I do.”
Pointing to two main undercurrents of the 2016 race, Ru said, “There are really only two emotions, love and fear. All others are derivatives of the two. Which will you choose today?”
The Drag Race creator also tweeted the famous George Santayana quote, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” seemingly implying that America will be forced to repeat the horrors that Germany endured under the Nazis.
