Guardrails against racist, xenophobic or dehumanizing rhetoric have all but vanished on the American right.

What was once disqualifying — or the exclusive domain of online trolls — is now a fixture of national political discourse.

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.

Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.
