The United States has from its inception been governed by and for racists. Twelve presidents were slave owners and Washington made his fortune by killing native men, women, and children, and then selling off their land. The Revolutionary War was fought to protect slavery in the Americas as Great Britain was moving to abolish it, and to continue the massacres of Native Americans after King George III issued a proclamation in 1763 that would ban any settlement west of the Appalachian Divide - lands that Washington, Jefferson, and Thomas Paine, were already busy surveying.
Divide and conquer has been used to great effect by pitting dumb white workers against indians and blacks and Mexicans. In recent times it has been used effectively by Nixon, Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and most recently Trump.
