It’s George Wallace versus Richard Nixon. One was about as blatantly racist as any presidential candidate since Reconstruction. He lost. Richard Nixon wasn’t much better but he understood how to appeal to out and out racists as well as people who wouldn’t openly espouse such views but who nonetheless subscribed to them privately.
You can say that Trump is an idiot and an incompetent but that line of thought being held by his opponents has already resulted in him being elected once.

pretty sure you don't need to be particularly intuitive or perceptive to get a bunch of racist idiots riled up. in fact, if anything upsets racist idiots, it's intuition and perception.
