Is Trump a racist?

Well, I guess if you subscribe to contemporary notions of "political
correctness" and, with the PC rules overruling any
other considerations, yes, he has to be defined as a racist.

However, there are other ways to interpret what he said (and says)
but one has to look outside of the rules of political correctness
to understand or even give consideration to them, something difficult
to do with most progressives and certainly in the liberal media.

For example, his apparent racism related to referring to the judge as
being of Mexican heritage may not be based in racism at all. The
Donald's "Trump University" is being sued. The original lead plaintiff
in the lawsuit requested and was granted removal from being a plaintiff
in the case. In normal court proceedings, that would be end end of the
lawsuit. But in this case the judge allowed the suit to continue under
conditions and rulings made uniquely by him.

Trump has already ****ed off many (or most) Mexicans by insisting that
he is going to build a wall for which Mexico will pay for. Trump's
comments about the judge could simply be related to the fact that the
judge, being of Mexican heritage, may be sympathetic to the those who
oppose a wall and, according to Trump, is exercising his sympathy's in a
manner that is not germane to the lawsuit. If so, his comments can't be
regarded as being "racist".

The media has whipped this whole thing up to where no other
interpretation can be considered. I fully expect Harry to reply
with a four-word post:

"Trump is a racist"

Trump was stupid to bring up this guy's distant heritage. He should
have simply attacked the decision on legal grounds or, better, let his
lawyer do it.
