Poll: One year after Charlottesville, majority of Americans see racial tensions on the rise
One year after the deadly rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, most Americans feel racial tensions have grown over the past year, and partisans – as well as white and black Americans – divide sharply on how President Trump handles race relations.
Majorities of whites, blacks and Hispanics feel this way, but blacks are especially likely to think so: 78 percent feel tensions have increased.
Today, 58 percent of Americans disapprove of Mr. Trump's handling of race relations and racial issues, but these views – like many others on the president – are dramatically split by partisanship and by race.
Eighty-two percent of blacks disapprove and 73 percent of Hispanics disapprove. Whites are evenly split (49 percent approve, 51 percent disapprove) and views among them fall along party lines.
They've been gaslighted (to use your pet term) by MSM.
