Even if he isn't an avatar for white supremacy, his reaction after Charlottesville was rather slow, as well after the New Zealand massacre this year. I see the same problem in my native Germany, populists and conservatives aren't taking domestic right-wing terrorism as serious as they do with the much rarer left-wing terrorism.
Who did David Duke support during the presidential campaign? Trump. Who did applaud when Trump put up that Muslim travel ban?
It doesn't matter much what Trump claims he is or isn't: The problem is the extreme fringes of society that support him and feel empowered by his election. Empowered so much that they get out on the street more openly with the hate speech.
