Labeling someone a racist lost its meaning when everything became racist.
Everything is NOT racist, but Trump and a few of his friends like Laura Loomer clearly are. I can't find a single racist statement ever uttered by Republican senators like Mitt Romney or Lisa Murkowski.
Just a few racist things that Trump has said:
1. The lie that Haitian immigrants were eating their pets
2. The lie that President Obama was not born in the US
3. Calling for the death penalty for the innocent Central Park 5 (all African American men), never apologizing to them after they were all exonerated, and defaming them by lying that they had originally pleaded guilty (they had all pleaded not guilty).
4. Called Mexicans rapists.
5. Told 3 Congressional women of color, all American-born US citizens, to "go back and fix the broken and crime-infested places from which they came". That's like telling an American-born senator who's never been to Italy, but whose grandparents came from Rome, to go back to Sicily and fix the Mafia problem.
6. Called Senator Elizabeth Warren "Pocahantas".
7. Wanted more people to immigrate here from Norway rather than from "sh*thole countries".
Trump and his father Fred were also sued for housing discrimination against black people by the Dept of Justice. Black renters were told that there were no units available, while white renters were offered apartments in the same buildings. This was a violation of the Fair Housing Act.
It is called identity politics and it was invented by liberals.
No, identity politics is the opposite of racism. Identity politics tries to fix the marginalization of communities of color because of decades of discrimination against them. Just like what Trump and his father did denying housing to black people.
