Why Is Trump Accussed Of Being Racist?

He tweeted a picture of a black man with a gun, accompanied by completely fabricated crime statistics that claimed that 81% of white murder victims were killed by black people.

That’s either profoundly racist, or merely race-baiting. Take your pick.

It also has to be pointed out here that his source was a neo nazi:

One of the big factors that points at where a person’s ideals are coming from are not only the company he keeps, but also what his sources are.

That tweet could be explained as a mistake… if it had no other examples showing what bubbles of information Trump likes to be into. His birtherism was a big clue already.

Oh, so just because he repeats neo-Nazi lies about how black people are murderers, now he’s a racist?! Get real people.

No, that is not stretching it. Do you really believe for a moment that birtherism is rooted in anything other than racism?

Given his inflammatory behavior during the Central Park rape trial, I’m not sure the answer isn’t both.
