1. This question, like all questions tied to Trump, is effectively a measure of whether you love or hate the President. So, 86% of Republicans say Trump isn't a racist and 86% of Democrats say he is. Independents, who view Trump slightly more negatively than positively overall, have similar view on whether he is a racist: 50% say he is, 44% say he is not.
The "racist" numbers are not a direct facsimile of Trump's overall approval numbers, of course. More people feel unfavorably about Trump's job performance (55%) than say he is a racist (49%). But it's close.


(CNN)A new Quinnipiac University poll has a striking result: 49% of people said they believe President Donald Trump to be a racist while 47% believe he is not.

Pause and digest that: Half the country -- HALF -- thinks the elected President of the United States harbors racist views.
That's a remarkable finding. Full stop.

1. To the other half: what the hell would it take??

I think some people think "racist" means "uses the n-word" and if you can manage to avoid that then you must not be a racist.

4. The other half KNOWS he is a racist

but, since they are also racists ( closeted or not ), they wish the Donald to be "non-racist" because they know it would hurt DJTs chances to be re-elected if everyone says what they actually believe.
