Trump’s close allies have expressed plans to dramatically change the government’s interpretation of Civil Rights laws to focus on anti-White racism and discrimination rather than just discrimination against people of color. However, this is not coming directly from Trump but rather from close allies, like Stephen Miller, as well as from a campaign spokesman.
Trump’s campaign spokesperson, Steven Cheung, told Axios, “As President Trump has said, all staff, offices, and initiatives connected to Biden’s un-American policy will be immediately terminated,” and that Trump “is committed to weeding out discriminatory programs and racist ideology across the federal government.” Stephen Miller’s America First Legal has sued government agencies and corporations for discriminating against Whites. However, no one in Trump’s campaign is talking about dramatically changing Civil Rights law but rather opposing anti-White discrimination under the existing legal framework.
Regardless, it is a positive development and shows a major paradigm shift within the MAGA GOP. During Trump’s presidency, he would boast about the greatest unemployment for every group except White males, which is still on Trump’s campaign platform. Trump still talks about opposing wokeness in a broad sense rather than specifically about anti-White discrimination. While I am leaning towards RFK Jr., if Trump makes anti-Whiteness a major campaign issue, then there is a stronger case to support him, even if it is just about pushing the Overton Window. RFK Jr. is more liberal on Civil Rights but stronger on civil liberties issues, such as privacy rights.
