“Trump is doubling down on racism because fewer people are buying the rest of the story”
Exactly. This will be a further stress point for some wishing to straddle the fence with Trump by making excuses for him — it is now too obvious who & what he is — that is, the ‘Ugly American’.
And as more Americans begin to suffer financial ill effects of Trump’s maneuvers, they will be less inclined to cut him slack on all the other fronts where they only witness, not directly feel, the erosion of American greatness.
He is peeling away his own supporters, disabusing them of any remnants of hope they may have in his redeeming qualities. “Well at least he’s good on the economy.” became “Well at least he’s good for MY portion of the economy.” … is giving way to “He’s only good for his own bottom line.”
When both pro-Trump stock traders and farmers begin losing faith, things are getting bad!
— Let’s hope he doesn’t start (another) war in order to regroup his fan base.

The post arrived on the sixth day of Black History Month, though it would be just as sickening any other day.
The one Black member of the U.S. Senate, Tim Scott (R-SC), who has been a genuflector of the president for years, had no choice but to speak out:
“Praying it was fake because it’s the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House.”
“Most.” And it wasn’t fake. “The most racist thing.” https://tinyurl.com/4ac6r7h9
