Well, being frank there is going to be no ending racism until Christ comes back it has always been around and will always be around until Christ returns.
If the Christ part is real, then yes most likely,

But same for many evils. Are to not resist them?

Nobody forced Trump to falsely claim that Obama can't be an American because he's black.

Uh... when did Trump say this?

No, seriously, when? In all the many attacks on Trump, I haven't heard of this before. I tried searching but couldn't find anything. If Trump said "Obama can't be an American because he's black" the liberals would be all over this, but I've never heard of this.

I'm guessing this is a reference to how Trump for a while was promoting the "birther" conspiracy that Obama wasn't born in the United States and as a result wasn't eligible for being President. That's certainly a silly idea, but that's a pretty far cry from "Obama can't be an American because he's black".

Nobody forced Musk to do a Nazi salute

There is little reason to believe that Musk was doing a Nazi salute; he even preceded it with saying "my heart goes out to you" to better show the purpose behind it.

In some fairness, Musk's handling of the accusation afterwards was bad. But I don't see much reason to believe it was an intentional Nazi salute.

or to hire a Nazi sympathizer for DOGE.

Who?

I'm guessing this is in reference to Marko Elez, who was hired for DOGE but then resigned after it was discovered he made a bunch of racist posts on a separate account under a different name. I don't know if there's any reason to believe Musk was aware of that at the time of hiring, but I suppose that point doesn't matter anymore because he was then re-hired by Musk (or at least Musk said he'd re-hire him recently, I'm not sure if he actually did yet).

Regardless, even if tweets like "Normalize Indian hate" are clearly racist, I haven't seen any evidence he was a Nazi supporter, despite having looked at several liberal-aligned articles complaining about him and sharing examples of the racist tweets. Surely if there was any actual evidence of Nazi support, they'd be showing that... but no, it's just generic racist stuff. Obviously not good, but not Nazi either.

During that same election cycle, did Trump accuse anyone else of not being born in America? Rubio's father was also not an American at the time of his birth, but did Trump accuse him of not being a natural born American? No. Rubio's mother, unlike Obama's, was not an American when Marco was born, but was he accused of not being an American? No.

It was just an unfounded opinion that they removed "End Racism" slogan because of Trump attending. And frankly I actually think the phrases they are going to use are much better in any case.

Choose Love' and 'It Takes All of Us' will replace the phrase End Racism.

People usually come to that conclusion when there is evidence to support it. In 1989, Trump lambasted the Central Park Five (five black and Latino men) who were arrested for allegedly raping a jogger in Central Park. When they were found innocent because of DNA, Trump still wanted them kept in prison. In 1973, the Justice Department sued Trump for discriminating against blacks. He has a history of disdain for black, brown and muslim individuals. So, apparently half the country knows his history of discrimination and you don't.
Uhhh Islam isn’t a race, and people can change

If that is so, why is the NFL afraid he would be offended at the words "End Racism" in each end zone?

Apparently, it was his terminating DEI programs that clued them in--because who does DEI benefit? People of color and women and other minorities.

No, DEI is not "Donald, Eric, and Ivanka," although they have certainly earned their places in business and society through the biggest, most deeply entrenched affirmative action program ever--nepotism.

When Trump refers to Obama in his social media posts, he nearly always does so by calling him ‘Barack HUSSEIN Obama’ (capital letter emphasis is his, not mine).

Why is that?
Probably because he associated it with Islam, and not a race. That is indeed Obama middle name, but Obama was never a Muslim.

See the Ohio Nazis above.
This statement could be compared to someone saying nobody drives model T fords anymore then you post some pictures of people driving model T fords at an antique car rally. Do you know why those photos were taken? Probably because it’s something people don’t see very often because they’re extremely rare.

I'm not sure how that really relates to the point I was making.
