If you look at the state of the world, with brexit & trump driven in a large part by overt racism, this is, very sadly, more true than just a funny turn on a well known phrase.

(The callback of course to "weight loss doctors hate him" or any number of similar headlines)

I think it mischaracterizes both Brexit and Trump's popularity to attribute it to ”overt racism“. 'Overt nationalism' is probably more accurate.
