Slim Majority Say Trump Is Biased Against Blacks

The Washington Post reports:

In November, The Washington Post and our polling partners at ABC News asked Americans if they believed that Trump was biased against black people. Did his words and actions outweigh his repeated assertions that he’s the “least racist person” you’ll ever meet?

At that point, 50 percent of Americans said that Trump held a racial bias against black people. In our new poll, that has risen to 52 percent, more than half, with the percentage saying that they strongly believe Trump to be biased rising from 36 percent to 40 percent.

Eight in 10 black Americans think Trump is biased against them, and nearly two-thirds of Hispanics say that he is as well. Among whites, though, a plurality of respondents said that they think Trump isn’t biased against black people.
