Trump’s mantra is to say it first, say it loudest, and say it often and eventually you’ll get some people to believe it. He doesn’t have to get many. Just enough to matter. And we’ve (sadly) already proven there are enough people out there prone to racist influence where getting enough to matter may not be all that difficult, so long as he repeats it often and loudly enough. It’s been pretty successful for him so far.
Football fans will know the analogy of “This is a game of inches”. Same thing applies here. This election is going to come down to small pockets of independent voters in key swing states. Those states may have a few center-right people who think that Trump is bad enough where they’ll hold their nose and vote for the old white guy, but asking them to vote for a <gasp!> black woman! is just a bit too far. They may be a fringe minority, but a fringe minority may be all he needs in a couple of these states.
Yes, there will be done whonthinonshes better for the job and some whonthinos shes worse.
The question is how many of each and if racist rhetoric is enough to move the needle in a few. Trump wouldn’t need to care about the electoral advantage to be sexist and racist, but if he reckons its also to his advantage, hell go all out.
Minorities voting for Obama was about hope, change, as per his slogan. Now its becoming about fascism, I’m still flabbergasted by gay peioke or black people that want to vote Trump. Heck, I’m still shocked that otherwise reasonable people, who are not a minority, are supportive of such a conman.

Couldn’t you say the opposite is true regarding age? I would imagine she may pull in some demographics Biden might have lost.
