Trump’s statements have been reflected in his behavior—from public acts (placing ads calling for the execution of five young black and Latino men accused of rape, who were later shown to be innocent) to private preferences (“When Donald and Ivana came to the casino, the bosses would order all the black people off the floor,” a former employee of Trump’s Castle, in Atlantic City, New Jersey, told a writer for The New Yorker). Trump emerged as a political force owing to his full-throated embrace of “birtherism,” the false charge that the nation’s first black president, Barack Obama, wasn’t born in the USA. Then there was his Muslim Ban, his claim of seeing Muslims dancing in the streets and celebrating during September 11, 2001, more recently his “immigrants are vermin” rhetoric, and Haitians are eating your cats and dogs lies. Oh, right, Proud Boys are “good people”. Is that enough evidence of his racism?
