The problem with your logic is that you assume that Trump has made a bunch of racist remarks this campaign. He has not.
Trump is is a racist
Why?
Because racists are voting for him.
Why are racists voting for him?
Because he is a racist.
It's the very definition of circular logic.

Nice try. Well, not really. Trump has made comments this campaign as well as historically.
No, Trump isn't a racist because racists are voting for him. Trump IS a racist (as well as a bigot and a misogynist.) and people that share these traits are voting for him.
Here's a short list of examples of Trump's racism, bigotry and misogyny for you.
Refusing to rent to blacks - racism
"black guys counting my money! I hate it. The only guys I want counting my money are short guys wearing yarmulkes....Nobody else…Besides that, I tell you something else. I think that’s guy’s lazy. And it’s probably not his fault because laziness is a trait in blacks.”" - racism
Obama wasn't born here - racism
“Ariana Huffington is unattractive, both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man – he made a good decision.” - misogyny
“You know, it really doesn’t matter what the media write as long as you’ve got a young, and beautiful, piece of ass.” - misogyny
"Reading her little script...You could see there was blood coming out of her eyes," Trump told CNN's Don Lemon on Friday night. "Blood coming out of her wherever." - misogyny
Calling Mexicans rapists - racism
Wanting to profile and ban muslims - bigotry
Calling an american born judge a mexican - racism
Calling a black man at one of his rallies "my african american" - racism
Making fun of a handicapped reporter - bigotry
