Hard to imagine anything much weirder than wanting to present oneself as racist in front of an African-American journalists association. Pretty much guaranteed to get a hostile reception when you do that.

    the real purpose was to show the MAGA base that he’s willing to bring the racism to “them”

    Who cares what cultists think? They’re gonna zombie march their way to the polls even if sir fartsalot fucks all their moms for 30 seconds, the longest he’s ever lasted during sex. An appearance like this could only be detrimental for him-- none of the centrists will be swayed by any of his usual schtick here, and some of them who are POC will be put off by his jackassery on blatant display.

      Yup, he knows he has the racist vote on lock. I really think he was hoping to dissuade black voters from going out to vote for her - he’s scared of them, and he should be. Without them he wouldn’t have lost last time.
