As long as his deductions are legal, no problem. Hill too, for that matter.
I agree that Trump is not really qualified to be president, but I don't see where you get him being a racist from. His comment that some Mexicans are rapists? Some are. Or his wanting to cut immigration sharply, especially from countries where most people have very different cultures and values? I have no problem with that either.
If you do not get the racist part yet you may never, but I will try to walk you through it.
Logic step one: Look up the definition for racist. Here from Google: a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
Logic step two: look up the actual text in question from a primary source. Here is the primary transcript of his announcement. http://time.com/3923128/donald-trump-announcement-speech/
Here is the actual quote of text to be analyzed. "The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems. Thank you. It’s true, and these are the best and the finest. When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people."
Logic step three: Combine the definition, text, and implicit comparisons and see if it is an example of the definition.
a person (Trump) who believes (he stated it, so it is assumed he believes what he says) that a particular race (Here Mexicans in America. Mexicans is a race because it refers to a latino from a geographic location) is superior (He only assumes some are good people. Some is less than half and certainly less than what he believes his race has) to another (It is implicit that there is a comparison to whites when a white person makes the statements as to quality of a population of a differing race).
Aside to understanding implicit comparisons: When someone says "big apple" is there a comparison? Yes, the comparison is to what is normal in from that person's point of view. Here saying some people of Mexican origin are good people means compared to what the speaker thinks the population for good people is (Normally you would have to figure out the amount of good people in the normal distribution in the view of the speaker, surely more than some. Here, he is running for president and has touted that Americans are the greatest people, significantly more than some) compared to what the population for good people of Mexican origin some (not many) are good people.
Logic step four: evaluate if the definition, speech text, and implicit support the claim.
You could also run this definition through what he states about black communities or Arabs.
Were it examined in a vacuum it may be possible to argue that the Mexican rapist comment wasn't racist. There is quite a lot of evidence of racism and bigotry surrounding Trump though. Certainly you shouldn't convict a man on circumstance, but at the same time . . . where there's enough smoke it's foolish to pretend that there's no fire.
Donald Trump violated the civil rights act by refusing to rent homes to black people.
