Donald Trump's pledge to fight what he calls "anti-white feeling" in the US will likely embolden allies who seek to dismantle government and corporate programs created to battle racism and boost diversity in American life.

Some high-profile supporters of the former president, now the 2024 Republican presidential candidate, say policies for safeguarding people of colour in classrooms, workplaces and charities should be repurposed to protect the rights of white people as well.
