I've been in stores and had to wait to pay because the cashier had his eyes on blacks in the store. The thing is the cashier wasn't white. Blacks burning down the neighborhood didn't help bigotry at all. It reinforced it. Black business owners were out trying to protect their business. I saw on the news where a group of black men guarded a white man's business around the clock because he had always given them work and helped them. It's sad that you don't see the bigotry of your own people.
haa, it is sad that you make so many assumptions. Any one can be a bigot. We dont need bigots in positions of power over those for which they are bigoted against. It so happens the history of this country started with and has continued to mostly have white men in positions of power over the rest of us, so it is THEIR bigotry that gets a special spotlight. This doesnt mean the average citizen of EVERY race cannot also hold bigoted views, it just doesnt have as far reaching an impact in the big picture.
Obama's bigotry had a huge impact when he condone the rioting in Missouri. From what I see Trump is hated for being a rich white man. For instance; he said he wants merit based immigration. The dems said that means he only wants whites to migrate to America. It was the dems who called people of color unskilled enough to come here. Not Trump.
more imagined history:
This is what Obama ACTUALLY said regarding rioting in Missouri:
Obama condemned the rioting and violence broke out in Missouri Monday after a grand jury failed to indict a police officer in the shooting death of 18-year-old Michael Brown in August.
"Burning buildings, torching cars, destroying property, putting people at risk -- that's destructive, and there's no excuse for it. Those are criminal acts, and people should be prosecuted for it," he said Tuesday in Chicago.

From what I see, Trump is hated for any number of reasons, maybe by some because he is republcan, maybe by some because of his wealth or race, and probably by most because he is merely getting BACK the hate he puts out.
I am a dem, I never called people of color unskilled to come here. Merit is a term that needs details because of how subjectively it can be applied.
