He's an old white American. Assuming that he's racist should be the default assumption until and unless he demonstrates that he's not racist.
And he has not demonstrated that. He has gone out of his way to fund and supply a genocide of brown people, despite the electoral damage it's doing to his party.
Occam's fucking razor.
It doesn't matter what I think. He'll go down in history as a racist monster, and so will all of his defenders.
"I don't think you should call people racist just because they're committing genocide. You don't know them personally."
White people care more about a white person being called racist than they do about genocide.
