And the sail is also made of silk, not cloth.

> Which brings us back on topic: “Trump” isn’t making kids into racist scumbags. Racist scumbags made Trump what he is, and they’re also making kids just like them. If **Clothahump** isn’t racist, he’s certainly racist-adjacent.

True, but the election of Trump has emboldened them and brought them out in the open. Before they realized that their opinions were not going to be well accepted by mainstream society so they kept them to themselves or only in cases where they knew they were surrounded by their fellows. By being elected, Trump demonstrated that it is possible to engage in bullying, insulting and racist rhetoric without suffering negative consequences.
