Look I don’t know if Trump is racist it not. In grew up in Atlanta and if you went up to a black person and said something of the things that Trump has said. Odds are you would get your arse handed to you. If not killed.
Who goes looking for a fight?
Are your feelings a gauge of your success, or failure?
To play devil’s advocate, what actions and words would it take to fit the definition of racist?
Take this example of instance:
He argued in 2016 that Judge Gonzalo Curiel — who was overseeing the Trump University lawsuit — should recuse himself from the case because of his Mexican heritage and membership in a Latino lawyers association.
anyone that has a different opinion than those on the left are racist!
Trump is a birther. That automatically makes him a racist. No ifs, ands or buts.
And like most Republicans, he engages in dog whistle politics. Black countries are ****holes, Baltimore is a ****hole, Mexican judges are not qualified to hear his cases because they are Mexican, the Central Park Five should have remained in jail even though they were exonerated, four non-white American congresswomen need to go back to where they came from. The proof goes on and on and on.
He continues to tell us on a regular basis that he is a racist. I believe him.

The left will never fully answer that... they will keep finding new things they want to put under the umbrella of racist when those things actually aren't racist....the second they actually define "racist" they wont get to add anything new under the umbrella.
yep. i have no idea if he himself is racist but i do believe he intentionally courted racists ( i cite his involvement in birtherism, retweeting a fake racist statistic during the campaign and his wishy-washy response to charlottesville ) and, at this point, the difference between being a racist and appealing to racists is insignificant.
Exactly. I have to judge Trump by his Party and his voters. I have no other metric.
And by that metric, he’s a serious racist.
