Itās a bit crazy seeing a possible interpretation of the fabled Four Horseman of the Apocalypse happening right before our eyes, and how seemingly easy it was to occur. And behold the second, a rider on a red horse (MAGA?) brings forth an end to Peace. Around it are conquest, pestilence, and death.

They go after the easiest targets so they can tell FOX, et al. they are deporting people, knowing their media will twist the facts, plus intentionally leave the actual threats so their media can also heavily exaggerate that criminals are running rampant. #NegativeOptics #ForTheirAudience
