Repeating dishonesty does not miraculously make it honest. Saying X is racist does not mean nor imply that if one calls out racism is racist themselves as that's not even remotely logical.
As I stated in a previous post, it seems that most of those who are truly racist compound their dishonesty by blaming the "messenger" by calling them "racist". How childish. It's like when I was a child telling my mother "Johnny did it too!" after we got caught throwing a rock through a window [I think we were both 4], and my mother saying "I'm not Johnny's mother!". Or, to put it another way, "Two wrongs don't make a right!", which was another one of my mother's oft heard statements back to me and/or my sister.
Trump has a long record of being racist, so the only honest response to that should be to accept the evidence rather than just resort to denial, denial, denial. Jesus taught and demanded Truth, not a repeated denial of reality.
