Trump’s influence on hate crimes
Some researchers at the University of North Texas did a study tracking hate crimes in places Trump held rallies. Their findings are interesting to say the least.

The study compared counties that hosted rallies vs. counties that didn’t. In comparison, the counties that had rallies had a 226% rise in hate crimes.
One might make the case that the phenomena aren’t linked but it’s a hard case to make because a whole lot of these criminals actually reference Trump.

In fact, an earlier study, as far back as the campaign, showed a high correlation between hate-attacks and a modest miles radius from rally sites, and the effect seemed to last two months on average.
