 Media Pushes Back Against Poll that Found Nation is Getting Less Racist Under Trump
by Brian McNicoll on May 24, 2019
 

Racism got worse in American under President Obama but has gotten far better in America under President Trump – but the media has gone to great lengths not to credit Trump for this.

A Rasmussen poll in 2016 found 60 percent of Americans thought race relations had gotten worse since Obama took office.

But a study by a political science professor at the University of Pennsylvania found “anti-black prejudice took a sharp dive that was statistically significant,” there was “also a general fall in anti-Hispanic prejudice” and “the decline was as evident among Republican voters as it was among Democrats.”
