Many people have claimed that Trump has made it "okay" for racists to openly express their racism in ways that are truly abhorrent and shocking in America today.
Yeah, I don't disagree with that. This case is just really different. Most of the examples ITT are things that people are doing relatively openly and they think there is nothing wrong. This is a crime that he was trying to get away with and it looks like the racist graffiti was a ruse to get the police to think it was some sort of typical racist deplorable that had it in for the victim.
I'm confident the perp here would have done the same thing in Clinton's America or Obama's america. I just don't thing the trumpening of America really had anything to do with this one.
It not a big deal, though. I'm glad he posted the link or I wouldn't have seen it.
