The irony is that, the occasional high-profile backlash notwithstanding, few people are actually punished or ostracized for expressing Trump-like attitudes. This is clearly true in everyday life, where a sizable number of Americans hold and express white nationalist views but retain their jobs and relationships. It’s also true in the public sphere. Donald Trump is emblematic of this. Five years after stoking a racist conspiracy theory about the legitimacy of the U.S. president, he won the presidential nomination for the Republican Party, with only modest dissent from GOP elites.
Its been the constant narrative of the left promoting racism that people are sick of and pushing back against. Trying to twist it around and redefine it isn't going to work anymore.

Remember, to those on the far right, calling out some right-wing bigot when he starts dropping the N-word in public as part a racist rant is "racist," but they'll rush to the defense of the actual racist and claim he's "exercising his freedom of speech." Cute, but the 1st Amendment doesn't mean I can't call a bigot out on what he is, nor does it guarantee a bigot an audience.
Every single time I've heard somebody whine about "political correctness," it's always some angry, old white guy who's just mad he can't drop casual racial slurs anymore without consequences. Cry me a river, wimps.
