He said her question was racist. He didn’t call her a racist.

Exactly. And she didn’t call him a White Nationalist. Terrible headline. That website sucks. It’s trash. We should stop linking to it.

Yes, the excerpt was misleading, fake news. His answer was actually far more effective, explaining how he is a nationalist as opposed to a globalist, loved the USA, and was putting America first. She quickly tried to move on to a question on tax cuts.

Well, when you think about it, a question cannot be racist anymore than a question can be angry (i.e. questions and sentences don't have feelings).

By saying the question was racist or was a racist question, he was saying that it was the kind of question that only a racist would ask. In other words, it is implicitly a comment on the person asking the question.

BTW, I heard this exchange on the radio and didn't know the race of the person asking it. But now that I know, I would like to say that it was brave of the President to point out that, yes, a person of color can be a racist (even though Liberals insist they can't because they lack institutional power...whatever the hell that means).

Agreed. We conservatives need people who have a great understanding of our English language and how to use it to win. We’re especially lacking in conservative, heterosexual men who can do that.

But she is.

Being black (or off white) provides no immunity from racism.
