Not correct. A Racist is someone who is acting out their prejudice by using their superior position in life to deprive a minority person an equal opportunity at employment, access to loans, use of public facilities etc. Trumps father could have been accurately described as a racist because of his hiring and renting practices.
White cultures are not the only perpetrators. There is racism practiced in parts of South America, Asia and Africa towards minorities in those communities, including sometimes towards expat white people. The core of this discussion seems to be whether Trump is a card carrying Racist. Many on both sides have called him out over recent remarks. Constitutionally he cannot practice racism but his use of racially charged language and racist memes has distracted his agenda and provoked his detractors into apoplexy, a cheap political thrill that does not address the immigration problem or any other challenge we face as a nation in any kind of meaningful way.

Ever notice when Trump was a Democrat in New York and getting awards from the likes of Jessie Jackson for helping the minority community the word racism was never heard? Of course you gave the definition of racism. I know your not dumb so I'm pretty sure my personal descriptive definition of racism didn't go over your head. Trump is just trying to enforce our immigration laws, like Presidents before him. Obama did the same as Bush and Clinton did. The immigration fiasco in this country is congress's purview. Either enforce the laws or change them. If you are honest you will admit the racist label is way overused and is obviously used much of the time to shut down debate.
