I have found that oftentimes, racists tend to lean more libertarian.

It's probably more than most would think.

Define racist, though. I every person is racist, even on a very mild scale.

I'm willing to admit that some horrible people had ideologies similar to mine.

Populism is a rhetorical style, not an ideology.

True. However, with so many of the Trump crowd simply defining their views as "populist" (including a couple of posters on here), we can at least imagine who these people are.

Probably more then we'd like to admit. I think there are multiple levels though from just slightly internalizing some racist stereotypes to being in the KKK.

Yeah, this. Although I will point out that populist rhetoric often overlaps with racist rhetoric, even though the two don't necessarily go hand in hand.

Self-described elite are more racist, when you get down to it.

Indeed, but a significant amount of populist rhetoric has racist undertones (and sometimes, overtones).
