I think that's a gross exaggeration. Most of it was because he's a Democrat and a liberal. I guess it took 8 years of his policies for many people to realize they are actually racist.
My take would be a lot more criticism was deflected and dismissed as being racist rather than actual racists being critics. I wouldn't point to some Klan member trolling Facebook as representative.
Obviously racism exists. But "much of the hate" rings a bit hollow for a guy who, personally, remains very popular and likeable with Dems and Repubs alike.
