Do you think Donald Trump is racist?

After what he said in a speech about Mexico not sending their best to America and accusing many of the people who come across the border of being criminals, there has been a huge backlash. I know many of my Mexican relatives are disgusted. Macy’s dropped his clothing line and NBC dropped his reality show.

I really really doubt he is racist, but I do think he is pretty stupid to say those things and not realize there would be an uproar. Maybe he wants the uproar.

Note: I know being Mexican or Latin American is not a race, but I use the term racist for simplicity to mean hate and a narrow negative assumption about a group.
