Trump is struggling so hard to hold back racist and sexist remarks. It's why his brain is short-circuiting with lame insults like, "lying Kamala" because his entrenched neural pathways want him to go a... Different route that he's more used to. But his advisors tell him that spells doom. It's amusing to watch. When will he break?

Atwater: Y'all don't quote me on this. You start out in 1954 by saying, "removed, removed, removed". By 1968, you can't say "removed"—that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like forced busing, states' rights and all that stuff. You're getting so abstract now [that] you're talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you're talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is [that] blacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that is part of it. I'm not saying that. But I'm saying that if it is getting that abstract, and that coded, that we are doing away with the racial problem one way or the other. You follow me—because obviously sitting around saying, "We want to cut this", is much more abstract than even the busing thing, and a hell of a lot more abstract than "removed, removed". So, any way you look at it, race is coming on the back-burner.[16]
