Throughout Alexander Hamilton the fact that Alexander is a immigrant is constantly brought up and used to try to insult him or make others see him as less reliable compared to the other founding fathers. In the song "We Know" Jefferson, Madison and Burr try to get Hamilton to step down by using this against him when they accuse him of giving government funds to James Reynolds. The song begins with them accusing Hamilton of taking government funds and giving them to Reynolds they also throw in some racist comments by basically saying that since he is a immigrant this is something they would expect of him. Hamilton strikes back however and tells them what really happened and shows evidence to prove them wrong quickly shutting them up and causing them to drop their accusations.

In our election today Donald Trump uses racism in attempts to defeat his opponents or to gain support from those that share his view. However just like Hamilton's rivals Trump is shown to not know the full story when he starts to make racist comments or tries to pin stuff on his political opponents. Evidence of this is when he stated that Obama was not a natural born U.S citizen and continue to state it even when proven incorrect. 

At this difference I'd like to pose a question if Trump would stop once he was proven wrong how do you think it would affect his campaign? Would it affect it negatively because he would be seen as weak or do you think it would help his campaign when people see that he knows when to back off a particular subject?
