13% of Democrats agree with Trump on that.

What the actual fuck?

    I mean, the massive number of racists who are currently trying to elect a fascist would disagree, and I think many minority groups would disagree that there haven’t been problems in the very recent past.

    Certainly, the fault lies in the racists, but we can’t pretend that is not a problem directly caused by having an ethnically diverse country. It’s one that we’ll need to find a solution for, because otherwise we’ll always have a group who is willing to burn democracy to the ground because they hate people who have a different skin color.

      I mean there are problems for minorities, but not for America as a whole I mean.

      because otherwise we’ll always have a group who is willing to burn democracy to the ground because they hate people who have a different skin color.

      I think it’s debatable they only do it because they hate people with a different skin color. They also hate women and poor people, among other things, so while the rhetoric would be different I don’t think being a 100% white country would do much to curb the American far right.
