Fred Trump, his dad, is known to have run with the KKK back in the day, and their real estate company was sanctioned by HUD for discrimination against blacks. So I think it's the way he was brought up. Having grown up in New York City myself, there were and are plenty of bigoted white people there. "White flight" was a nationwide phenomenon where people moved to "safe" (white) suburbs to get away from "bad" (black) neighborhoods. Trump can't move Trump Tower or his other Manhattan properties, but he mirrors the movement to the suburbs in his Bedminster, NJ golf course.How much of Trump is "white supremacist" and how much is "he says whatever his base wants to hear"?
"The Constitution may give you a voice, but it doesn’t guarantee you a receptive audience," Herdman added. "In fact, you have a God-given and inalienable right to be on the losing end of this argument."
He may "get along with" certain groups, but in his mind he's using them. Didn't matter if they're the "little guys in yarmulkes" he thinks should be counting his money or MBS, rust money he wants. His narcissism was nurtured and augmented brushing up bring told that his family had superior genes and were finely bred, like racehorses.Fred Trump, his dad, is known to have run with the KKK back in the day, and their real estate company was sanctioned by HUD for discrimination against blacks.

"White supremacists" are more like the Aryan purity mongers who hate anyone who is at all different from them. I put Trump in the "bigot who hates poor people of color" category. He gets along with Jews, for example, so long as they are european Jews. He even gets along with Muslims, as long as they are wealthy Saudis.
You say that like they're mutually exclusive.How much of Trump is "white supremacist" and how much is "he says whatever his base wants to hear"?
