Reagan's presidency signaled to some a lessening of rules against racial discrimination. Studies seem to show that Trump's lack of political correctness signaled something else.
Quote:
Racial and religious prejudice increased significantly among Donald Trump supporters during his presidency, according to the results of 13 studies published Monday by the journal Nature Human Behavior.
The studies included more than 10,000 participants. The researchers, Benjamin C. Ruisch of the University of Kent in the United Kingdom and Melissa J. Ferguson of Yale University, both social psychologists, also found that Trump opponents showed decreases in prejudice. "These results suggest that Trump's presidency coincided with a substantial change in the topography of prejudice in the United States," the article says.
If there was increasing prejudice I think it was because of all the social justice protests/riots, BLM, Antifa events. People being bullied and harassed while dining out. The rise of CRT based concepts being taught in schools to children. The call to defund police and ACAB rhetoric. The hate crime hoaxes and all of the division pushed on us by the liberal media. I don't think it's any surprise that prejudice increased among the folks many of these things were targeted at.
Trump and Republicans never talk about race. Meanwhile, everything coming out of the mouths of the Left/Democrats are about race. You tell me who are the ones creating racial division.

totally makes since to me. 100% caused by the left. When you spend your life trying to get beyond the racism you were raised with, and then you get the nut burgers of the left telling you no matter what, your a friggen racist, what happens?
people toss their hands in the air and say "screw it"
GET THIS> THIS IS BY DESIGN
This is what the hard PROG left WANTS. They want white people to hate black people. They want racism. They NEED racism. They have to have a boogie man.
Donald Trump was a racist. Forget the fact that he got more done for people of color than any president in the last 50 years. He was a racist because the left said it. period.

I am not surprised that a "study" by a couple of pointy-heads would "discover!" what a raysis trump was/is. He didn't kiss ass, he screwed over loyalists, he was rude and crude, but overall vs. #44 the non-natural-born-citizen or #46 the gravely disabled wrong-about-everything dunce, he was the Second Coming of Christ.
Even Tim Scott, no firebrand on racial issues, said Trump had made racially insensitive comments. All that stuff about misnaming the pandemic? All the nonsense about ' fine people on both sides'?
Republicans and Trump show by their actions racial insensitivity. They don't have to talk about it, I guess.
Racial insensitive does not mean racist. The fine people on both sides comment is a perfect example of his nonpartisan attitude on race. He isn’t taking sides. Meanwhile, Biden and Democrats are always creating racial division with their white supremacist rhetoric. Of course the liberal media doesn’t spin it negatively against their Democrat comrades like they did against Trump so your average Joe thinks Democrats are not racist when in fact they are the true racists.

So what an old guy in his 70's from New York who spent much of his life associating with people like tradesmen and construction workers used "insensitive" language. thats almost laughable look at almost anybodies life and they have at times used insensitive language and such language was far more common decades ago. Yet those comments are only really of interest if its Trump or a person on the right who has said them. Meanwhile take Biden and his use of the word nigg** and saying about Obama
"I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that's a storybook, man."
Such comments are stupid and unfortunately still not all that uncommon but back when guys their age were living their lives pretty dang common. The world was a very different place, in some ways far better but in many far worse. We cant continually condemn bad behavior from the past to conform to modern morals, that leads only to chaos.
