Cartoons speak for themselves on Trump's racist campaign to demonize immigrants

Many observers equate President Trump's racial views with Hitler or the Ku Klux Klan. Here, Cartoonist Adam Zyglis of The Buffalo (N.Y.) News agrees Trump doesn't have "a" racist bone in his body; he has dozens of racist bones, one shaped like the hood of the ghostly Klan outfit.
Cartoonist Nate Beeler of The Columbus Dispatch in Ohio shows sewage flowing out of Trump's mouth. The manhole cover is labeled "Racism."
Cartoonist Dave Granlund of PoliticalCartoons.com has Trump complaining about his treatment after he makes racist remarks. "Hey, there are others who agree with me," the president says, throwing his arms around Hitler and a Klansman.
Jimmy Margolies, former editorial cartoonist for The Record of Woodland Park, shows Trump in a Klan outfit saying, "I could lynch somebody on Fifth Avenue and not lose any voters..."
A second cartoon from Adam Zyglis labels as "vintage racism" Trump's words to four women of color in the House of Representatives: "Go back to where you came from!!"
In another cartoon from Dave Granlund, the ICE roundup announced by Trump ensnares Melania Knauss, his wife, for green card violations and illegal employment.
