“Using data from 35 million traffic stops, we show that the probability that a stopped driver is Black increases by 5.74% after a Trump rally. The effect is immediate, specific to Black drivers, [lasting], & is not justified by changes in driver behavior.” academic.oup.com/qje/advance-ar… 
“The effects are significantly larger among law enforcement officers whose estimated racial bias is higher at baseline, in areas [higher in] measures of racial resentment, those that experienced more racial violence during the Jim Crow era, and in former slave-holding counties.”
Stochastic terrorism. “Mentions of racial issues in Trump speeches, whether explicit or implicit, exacerbate the effect of a Trump rally [on police stops of Black drivers] among officers with higher estimated racial bias.” #racialprofiling c @jasonintrator
