Former President Donald Trump thinks that white Americans are facing discrimination that he says "can't be allowed."
In an interview with Time Magazine, the former president was asked about polls showing that his supporters believe that "antiwhite racism" is now a greater problem than prejudice leveled against other minorities.
"There is a definite antiwhite feeling in the country,” Trump replied in response. “And that can’t be allowed either.”

It's not clear what actions Trump would take to block this "antiwhite feeling in the country" although Time notes that Trump advisers say he will rescind all Biden administration executive orders related to boosting diversity and inclusion.

Trump has a long history of deploying racist dog whistles, starting with his failed quest to prove that former President Barack Obama was born in Kenya and was thus not eligible to be president.
In reality, Obama was born in Hawaii, as Trump himself finally acknowledged in 2016.
This continued throughout his first presidential campaign, when he argued that a judge could not fairly oversee the Trump University fraud case because of his "Mexican" heritage, and during his presidency, when he told four Democratic congresswomen of color to "go back" to their home countries even though all of them are American citizens.
