Incidence of people shouting racial slurs at blacks,

Incidence of people shouting racial slurs at blacks,Calling cops on blacks who are eating lunch And so on, did these incidents happen pre-Dotard and we just didn’t hear about them, or are they a result of the Dotard cheating his way to the White House and his stench wafting across the country?

Of course they did to the point where big public gatherings were held to lynch AAs.

I won't post the photos here because some whimpy DUers will complain that they are "graphic" but you can see some here from a 60 Minutes special about the opening of the National Memorial for Peace and Justice.

Trump has just inflamed haters more perhaps but he didn't create them just gave them more credence
