This argument is not correct at the moment. The negation side has stated that Donald Trump is not politically correct which proves that Trump may be doing unjust movements such as racist movements which the affirmation can provide evidence on since the negation side is not able to understand the fact that Trump has stated racist things. One example would be on June 16, 2015, where Trump stated, “When Mexico sends its people they’re not sending their best . . . They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapist. And some I assume are good people.” This quotation ultimately shows that Trump is unable to show respect for communities and decides to be racist to them such as in this example where he is unfairly stating that all Mexicans are drug-addicts, commit crimes, and are all rapist, which is completely false. Trump just simply assumes that SOME may be good people, even though Trump has no connection with these individuals personally. Side: No

Racism is a MADE UP WORD coined in 1902. It is used as a political and ideological weapon. It's the same way they created words like "Islamophobia" or "Black Lives Matter" or even how they are using terms like "Fat Shaming" or calling everything "Bullying" to shut you up. Do you think that accusing your enemy as a racist back in 1392, was going to shame them and stop them in their tracks from conquering your village, killing your men, taking your women and children? They would laugh in your face. But today, you call someone a racist and the entire world stops dead in its tracks because everyone has to "gasp" and tread carefully. If you want to character assassinate someone, the oldest trick in the book is to call them a racist, homophobe, xenophobe, or islamaphobe......pick your weapon. They are all today's silent killers. Side: No
Dear logicaljoe, if you really think the world is the same as it was in 1392, then you're sadly mistaken. People have evolved, not physically, but emotionally and mentally. We aren't the barbarians of the pre-industrial age so why are you making comparisons to the savages of the 14th century? We've obviously grown to be compassionate for each other and to value human life, hence the reasoning behind the terms racism and sexism. Yes these terms we're not coined until recent decades, but it's because in a time were people were hung for adultery among other silly offences, people didn't care about these two issues because everyone was guilty of them. If you can't handle a modern, respectful society, move to Somalia you twit. Side: Yes
Hell if I know! It's all just a bunch of speculation fueled by leftist media. There's no proof of him being racist. I mean, the dude said he wanted Oprah to be his running mate. As for Mexicans, not all Mexicans are illegal. He's anti-illegal immigrants (that fucking bastard!) and Muslims, well, they're problematic, let's be honest. Side: No
When Trump said that the federal judge could not be trusted to do his job because he was part of a pro-Mexican society and was culturally active, that was definitely racist. However, I agree with you that his comments about illegal Hispanic immigrants were more directed towards the fact that they were illegal, rather than them being Hispanic. While his generalizations were still false, that statement was not inherently racist. However, I just want to clarify, are you saying all Muslims are problematic? Side: Yes

He probably is just in the same way everyone else is to a greater or lesser extent. Whites have every reason to feel superior to blacks and Mexicans and should never feel guilty nor apologise for acknowledging and expressing what everyone knows to be undeniably true, including blacks. Look at most African states and the contrast between the United States and Mexico. To say that whites are superior to Blacks and Greasers is a self evident truth. Side: Yes
Of course he is, there is no debate Here are 13 examples of him being a racist: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/ Side: Yes

In all honesty, I believe Trump to be just an extremely large ignoramus. He could potentially be racist/etc., but I honestly think all his controversial statements are a result of stupidity and ignorance rather than established hate for a specific race. On that note, it's obvious he is a misogynist, anyone who tries to say otherwise hasn't paid enough attention to him to even know, or is a blind supporter. Side: Yes
