Cal State: "Hate" Crimes Are Trump's Fault

Well, sure!  Why not Trump???

The level of hate crimes in the U.S. shot up in 2021 across a dozen of the nation's biggest cities, and Asian Americans were among those being targeted most often amid the coronavirus pandemic as crimes against them skyrocketed 339 percent.  

Data from metropolitan police departments in 14 cities found hate crimes were up by 46 percent in 2021 from 2020. 

The disturbing findings come from data that has been collected as part of an as yet unpublished study by the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at California State University. ...

[Cal State professor propagandist] Levin explained how the center tracked a rise in anti-Asian violence after former President Donald Trump started calling COVID-19 the 'China virus' and 'kung flu.'

You will also note that D.C. "hate" crimes are up substantially.  However, the 'study' claims that "hate crimes" are mostly directed at blacks.

That's a problem, as D.C. is at least 60% black.  

Well, no matter.  Hate crime in D.C.?  That's Trump's fault, too, right??
