I never really understood why as he hadn't said anything to indicate he was racist. With his numbers fading, maybe he thinks that segment needs solidified?

Xenophobia was a winning strategy and has been a big strategy for the GOP for years, but he was careful not to blow the dog whistle for anti-black racism.

He's got an airhorn now, though. Pro-confederacy, anti-BLM.
