Yes, most of them don’t think of it that way and/or deny that the status quo is racist. You see a meaningful distinction between these people and your 1/5. When taking about how large groups of people vote, I do not.
You and I preferred the current economic status quo to Trump's populist trade policies. Does that make us racists?

Using your reasoning, supporting globalization is racist, as it takes jobs away from lower income groups, many of which tend to be minorities.

When you use impact as the defining metric, almost every policy can be claimed to be bigoted toward some group. Unless, of course, you're discussing some exceptionally unique policy that provides exclusively positive results to all groups.
