You're facing a linguistic problem. The english language opens all kinds of rat holes to wiggle out. In German we don't have that problem. Racist is racist, we only have one word for it when you direct hatred at a certain group. Regardless of it's nature. Yes, we know the word bigotry too. But it has an entirely different connotation and it's seldomly used at all.
Everyone knows what's meant by racist. And yes, even the mainstream media calls Trump's campaign racist.
