Team Trump Claims Whites Are the Real Victims of American Racism
Donald Trump and his faithful are working hard to end what they view as anti-White racism. From the numbers they use to describe America’s population to fast-tracking legal immigration for a few dozen White Afrikaner farmers to the nonsense claim that Black people murder Whites and steal their land.
Team Trump wants all the fruits of our economy to go to White people, leaving just enough scraps for people of color and women to dissuade informed and effective opposition. And even among White people, only those loyal to Trump deserve anything more than misery.
But where does this belief that White Americans are the victims come from? How could anyone think that it is Whites—not Blacks, Hispanics, and Indigenous peoples—who get the short end of the stick?
One powerful indicator is jobs. Keep in mind that Trump has for many years claimed that White people are having their jobs taken away by immigrants, both legal and not. He also pushes the baseless claim that unqualified minorities and women are taking jobs that White men are entitled to hold.
To put this baseless belief into action, Trump and the quisling Republicans on Capitol Hill work together to remove from America every bit of DEI—Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion—right down to banning books and a growing list of officially banned words, including woman and women.
Here’s some BLS.gov data that alarms Trump and his fellow white supremacist, misogynist, replacement-by-nonwhites Tiki torch marchers. The data below compares from baseline jobless rates (U-3) across more than two decades.
The data shows a long-range trend of jobless rates narrowing as Black and Hispanic people moved closer to the jobless rates of White people:
2000 2023
White 3.5 3.3
Black 7.6 5.5
B/W Ratio 117% 67%
That narrowing, from 117% higher Black unemployment to 67%, is more than enough to set Minister of Hate Stephen Miller’s hair on fire (if he had any).
My calculations show that the Hispanic/White unemployment ratio also narrowed, from 91% higher joblessness to 39% higher.
Jobless Rates
Now add this: the Black jobless rate fell 2.1 percentage points while the white rate barely changed, slipping only 0.2 percentage points. To Miller and Trump, what more evidence do you need that Whites are victims, losing out on jobs to people of color and women who get hired only because of what they perceive to be anti-White and anti-male policies?

Numbers like these show America moving to a less unequal, less racist society. But to those who want to Make America White Again, who want minorities and women to know their place, the relative change is clear evidence of discrimination against White people, no matter how crazy that interpretation is.

Trump is appalling ignorant. He didn’t know why the USS Arizona Memorial exists at Pearl Harbor. He spoke of 19th-century abolitionist Frederick Douglass as alive in our time. He insists that China will pay the tariffs on goods it exports to America when that burden falls directly on the importing company and is almost universally passed on to consumers through higher prices.
Dismissing 17 Million People
On Memorial Day, Trump spoke of “an American nation 325 million strong, which will soon be greater than it has ever before.”
The Census Population Clock shows that the U.S. population today is just shy of 342 million.
The difference of nearly 17 million fits with a debunked claim on Instagram aimed at the MAGA faithful and their sympathizers. And it further reinforces the point that, to Trump, people in America without permission simply don’t exist as human beings.

Last year, on the campaign trail, a video captured him calling those who oppose him and immigrants “vermin,” invoking the rhetoric of Hitler, Mussolini, and other fascist dictators.
“They’re poisoning the blood of our people,” Trump said again and again, invoking a racist Nazi meme used to justify murdering six million Jews. Trump denied knowledge of Nazi ideology, but the Associated Press showedhis remarks were part of a Trump pattern.
In 2024, Trump denigrated the estimated 11 million people in the U.S. without permission in ways that Nazis and neo-Nazis applauded. “They’re not humans, they’re not humans, they’re animals,” Trump said, a half dozen police officers in uniform standing behind him, an improper display of police authority in a political campaign.
Economic Fruits
Trump’s administration is white supremacist, pseudo-Christian nationalist, and misogynist.
Team Trump wants all the fruits of our economy to go to White people, leaving just enough scraps for people of color and women to dissuade informed and effective opposition. And even among White people, only those loyal to Trump deserve anything more than misery.
As Trump consolidates power, shuts down sources of accountability like Inspectors General offices, stocks the justice Department with loyalists who act as his personal revenge seekers, and moves toward a massive redistribution of wealth from the 99.9% to those hauling in $10 million a year or more, this will only get worse unless we people stand up for our Constitution, for the liberties of the people, and basic decency.
Allowing or stopping Trump’s dictatorship is a matter of choice. Do nothing, or only ineffectual responses like smart aleck Internet posts, and our liberties will erode until they are but a memory. And even that memory can—and will be—wiped out through actions like the word bans and book removals already underway.
It’s your choice. Act now or in the future, perhaps in months, but for sure within years, America will be a land not of the free and the brave but of cowardly victims of political prosecutions, concentration camps, and firing squads because all dictatorships turn to these tools to enforce their lawless control.
