What makes Donald trump a racist? I have seen and heard people say it a million times, yet every time I’ve asked they don’t answer.

I don’t know , I do know one thing that you don’t hear the media are anyone really talk about how Trump is a racist but in the 1980’s he did recieve the “Rosa Parks” award for treating minorities , mainly black people who worked for him, as good and equal as he treated white people. That was even before affirmative action.
Bottom line is this, Donald Trump is nowhere near a racist. And most democrats have no damn clue what a real racist even is. No clue at all. Fact is in America , a country over 330 million people, a very very very small percentage of people are racist. Despite the Liberals trying to pit every group against eachother.

Not a liberal but this is too easy

Denied housing to black applicants and was sues by the government

The way he phrases the jews or the blacks as if they aren't people

quote:

A former hotel executive said Trump criticized a black accountant: “Black guys counting my money! I hate it. … I think that the guy is lazy. And it’s probably not his fault, because laziness is a trait in blacks


quote:

quote:

Trump said a federal judge hearing a case about Trump University was biased because of the judge’s Mexican heritage.

In June 2017, Trump said 15,000 recent immigrants from Haiti “all have AIDS” and that 40,000 Nigerians, once seeing the United States, would never “go back to their huts” in Africa.

At the White House on Jan. 11, Trump vulgarly called for less immigration from Haiti and Africa and more from Norway.




quote:

He is quick to highlight crimes committed by dark-skinned people, sometimes exaggerating or lyingabout them (such as a claim about growing crime from “radical Islamic terror” in Britain). He is very slow to decry hate crimes committed by whites against dark-skinned people (such as the killing of an Indian man in Kansas last year).


quote:

He frequently criticizes prominent African-Americans for being unpatriotic, ungrateful and disrespectful.

He called Puerto Ricans who criticized his administration’s response to Hurricane Maria “politically motivated ingrates




quote:

He has retweeted white nationalistswithout apology.


quote:

He called some of those who marched alongside white supremacists in Charlottesville, Va., last August “very fine people.”

After David Duke, the former leader of the Ku Klux Klan, endorsed him, Trump was reluctant to disavow Duke even when asked directly on television.

Trump hired Steve Bannon as his campaign head and later White House chief strategist. Under Bannon’s leadership, the website Breitbart made white nationalism a central theme. It featured a section, for example, on “black crime.”

Trump endorsed and campaigned for Roy Moore, the Alabama Senate candidate who spoke positively about slavery and who called for an African-American Muslim member of Congress not to be seated because of his religion.




quote:

In the 1990s, Trump took out advertisements alleging that the “Mohawk Indian record of criminal activity is well documented.” At the time, he was fighting competition for his casino business.

In a 1993 radio interview, he suggested that Native Americans in Connecticut were faking their ancestry. “I think I might have more Indian blood than a lot of the so-called Indians that are trying to open up the reservations.”

In a November 2017 meeting with Navajo veterans of World War II, Trump mocked Senator Elizabeth Warren as “Pocahontas.”




quote:

Trump has trafficked in anti-Semitic caricatures, including the tweeting of a six-pointed star alongside a pile of cash. He has also been reluctant to condemn anti-Semitic attacks on journalists from his supporters, and he echoed neo-Nazi conspiracy theories by saying that Hillary Clinton “meets in secret with international banks to plot the destruction of U.S. sovereignty in order to enrich these global financial powers, her special interest friends and her donors.”

In a White House meeting with a Korean-American intelligence analyst briefing him on Pakistan, Trump wondered aloud why she was not working on North Korea policy.

Trump once referred to a Hispanic Miss Universe as “Miss Housekeeping.”




quote:

At a June 2016 campaign rally, Trump pointed to one attendee and said: “Oh, look at my African-American over here. Look at him.”

Liberal's definition of a racist is anyone opposed to their own political or ideological beliefs.

Lowest black and Mexican unemployment rate in history. Welfare and entitlements drastically diminishing due to family income of minorities increasing superbly. Calls shiteholes, shiteholes. Calls out white senator on false claim to Native skin heritage. Calls out the radicalized Islamic beliefs that quite literally call for jihad, and the death of all who are proponents of western civilization. Demands that immigrants enter the country legally. Refers to blood mongering, violent extremist gang members as the animals they are. Yep, definitely racist.
