A registry for muslims is being pushed by the Trump transition team. So how much are we willing to re-contextualize? Until they've gone after every minority group? Irish, Jews, Italians? No, you don't think?
You're still missing the point. It is a discriminatory agenda and he is appointing abhorrent people to his staff. I personally find most of Trump's agenda repulsive. I'm not denying this, neither is the article.
At the core of these issues you'll find people who are being sold solutions to a problem they personally have, regardless of the problem being valid. Labeling those issues and people as racist does nothing to help, and it's certainly not a solution. Especially when the labeling is wrong - I know a lot of trump supporters who want nothing to do with any of the discriminatory bullshit, yet people call them racist as soon as they speak out. This is a real problem, it's not something that's happening to a couple of guys out of 300 millions.
I think you are missing the bigger point that racist campaign promises weren't a deal breaker for people who voted for him, so just as most Germans in WW2 didn't think they're racist they voted in Hitler and the majority of them did nothing to stop the extermination of the Jewish people in Germany and across Europe. They didn't think of themselves as racist. There you go I simplified the moral equation for you.

It is against all principles that America is founded on. It is utter bigotry and yet it is happening.
