Trump's comments, attacks on members of Congress of color signal racism is acceptableAnd it is not just Trump but also the Republican party…

In telling four congresswomen of color to go back to their home countries — which, as Americans, they're already in — President Donald Trump tells every American it’s OK to go after someone’s ethnicity if you disagree with, dislike or have cause to interact with them.
He tells the police officer it’s fine to consider a motorist’s skin color when deciding whether to stop him for a broken tail light. He tells the school teacher it’s appropriate to factor in the mouthy kid’s race when contemplating disciplinary action. He tells the judge sentencing the drug offender for a first offense to be mindful of her ancestry.
In this way, Trump doesn't just break from past presidents of both parties who heralded America as a nation of immigrants that welcomes all regardless of their heritage and aims for a color-blind society. He embraces prejudice and gives racists a green light.
In refusing to join House Democrats in condemning Trump, all but four congressional Republicans show what complicity looks like. They help explain how the silence of onlookers has enabled tyrants and dictators to carry out campaigns of hatred unchecked. Instead, House Republicans want to sanction Democratic House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for using the term “racist” in reference to the president.

Last month, Ameur Dhaimini and his wife, Alaa Kouider, visited a Tim Hortons in Ann Arbor, Michigan, on their way north for a family vacation. According to Kouider, who was born in Lansing, Michigan, an employee working the drive-through of the fast-food restaurant chain messed up their coffee order, The Detroit News reports. When they entered the restaurant to get the order corrected, an employee there became irate, insulted them, and told the couple, who are Muslim and Algerian-American, "This isn't your country. Go back to your country. I thought you had your papers."

Anti-LGBT hate crimes are rising, the FBI says. But it gets worse

Hate crimes against LGBTQ people have been on a slight rise over the past three years, according to FBI data. While most hate crimes in the U.S. are motivated by bias toward race and religion, the number of crimes based on sexual orientation rose each year from 2014 to 2017, when 1,130 incidents were reported. Of those crimes, a majority targeted gay men.
Crimes motivated by a bias toward gender identity – against transgender and non-binary individuals – have generally risen since 2013, when the FBI first began recording them. At least 11 transgender people have been fatally shot or killed by other violent means in 2019, according to the Human Rights Campaign. Recent media reports suggest that crimes against black transgender women, in particular, have spiked this year.
Forbes reported last year that…
The U.S. has experienced an increase in hate crime for the third year in a row according to new statistics released by the FBI. In 2017, the number of incidents increased about 17% compared to 2016 with black and Jewish Americans particularly impacted. The total number of incidents recorded was 7,175, up from 6,121 in 2016. Last year, 59.6% of the incidents were motivated by bias against race, 20.6% were against religion and 15.8% were against a person's sexual orientation.This increase in hate can be directly attributed to the President of the United States.
He has set the tone for the country, his racist chants, his support of white supremacists, his attacks on LGBTQ+ people, and his attacks on immigrants has not drained the swamp but has given a green light for the slimy creatures to slither out of the swamp.
The Republican Party has been quite, only a few members have spoken out against Trump, most have been intimidated him and the Party.
The Republican Party is now the party of white supremacists. The Root reported that,
The reality is that as America’s electorate becomes more diverse, the Republican party is getting whiter. According to the Pew Research Center, the vast majority of Asian American voters (65 percent), Hispanic voters (63 percent) and black voters (84 percent) identify as Democrats or lean toward the Democratic Party. Although no more than one-third of the voters in each non-white group leans toward the GOP, a majority of white voters identifies or leans toward the Republican party.The Republicans show their bias with the gerrymandering, with barriers to voter registration, and with voter disenfranchisement. They are all targeting the black voters and remember that the Republicans are appointing federal judges who think the same way.

Why is the Republican Party so white?
Perhaps the reason the GOP is so white is that the Republican Party does not care about black voters.
A vote in 2020 for the Republicans is a vote white supremacy.
A vote in 2020 for the Republicans is a vote for the percussion of LGBTQ+ people.
A vote in 2020 for the Republicans is a vote misogyny.
