It does not seem necessary to ascribe racism as a motivation to a very large group of people who you don't know. Especially when the second sentence of your second point is spot on and can easily stand on it's own.
- s73v3r_ 8y agoGiven the outcome of things, it seems very disingenuous to pretend that it wasn't a part of his election.
- Reactionary_ 8y agoWhat outcome? You think enforcing border security and enacting a travel ban on countries identified by the Obama administration as terrorist threats somehow shows racism was a significant part of Trump's election? Those are common sense policies for most people and have nothing to do with racism. Law, order and regimented immigration processes are not racist, though people who want open borders for the express purpose of "making America brown" most definitely are racist. You should check your biases. Maybe Clinton was just a terrible candidate and Trump was on the right side of many policy issues? No, that couldn't be the case at all. Must be the racism.
