Trump effect

When permission to be racist is granted to the public by somebody famous who says some racist shit (often claiming later it was a “joke - wink wink”) and then hate crimes/hate speech go up against the same ethnic group that was targeted by that famous person. Especially pronounced when other public figures publicly agree with the racist remarks or refuse to publicly criticize them. A statistically significant effect that’s been documented as beginning during Trump’s presidential campaign, and continuing through his presidency and post presidency.
“Wow, the membership in white supremacist groups and far right hate groups went up like 400% between 2015 and 2020”

“Yup, that’s the Trump effect. He’s their best recruiter. By all means, let’s elect him again in 2024!”
