Not all white Americans voted for Trump. The one's that did are certainly okay with racism and for a not insignificant number it was a selling point.

>His first act was eliminating institutionalized racial practices with employment, aka "DEI" initiatives.

The purpose of the narrative that DEI is "institutional racism" and the goal of its elimination is to normalize the belief that non white straight male and able-bodied people are inherently less qualified for any position, and to allow legal systemic discrimination against such people.

Which is racist, yes. And sexist, and homophobic and transphobic and ableist.
