White Americans are more likely than black Americans to perceive whites as facing discrimination and less likely to consider white nationalism a serious threat. White Americans also seem somewhat more likely to be satisfied with Trump’s response to the events of last weekend. Few Think Trump Did Enough To Condemn Violence Two days after the events in Charlottesville, Trump spoke Monday to condemn the instigators of violence by name. Views are deeply politicized, with Clinton voters nearly six times likelier than Trump voters to view white nationalism as a very serious threat. While two-thirds of Clinton voters believe that white nationalism is more common among the right-wing than the left, the majority of Trump voters think that white nationalism is equally or more common on the left.
