Trump is merely the latest manifestation of racial hatred in the US. He is Reagan without the thin façade of "nice" that enabled Reagan to be just as racist and nasty as Trump while seeming to be a nice guy.

President Obama was almost without exception polite, well spoken, and willing to see both sides, but he was seen and treated by the GOP as if he were a Stokely Carmichael type intent on burning down white America.
